Six-hundred and twenty U.S. Environmental Protection Agency workers condemned EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin, the former congressman for the East End, in a letter of dissent — with some signatories now fighting for their careers.
The letter, publicly released June 30, condemned President Donald Trump’s administration’s rollback of regulations on asbestos and mercury usage, cancellation of billions of dollars worth of research grants, and firing hundreds of environmental justice staffers to comply with the administration’s DEI crackdown.
