Cortez Masto Opposes Lee Zeldin to Lead Environmental Protection Agency

Washington, D.C. – U.S. Senator Catherine Cortez Masto (D-Nev.) released the following statement after voting against Lee Zeldin to lead the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). “Lee Zeldin is not qualified to lead an agency tasked with protecting the air and water of millions of Americans. His deep ties to the Koch brothers and Big Oil are clear conflicts of interests, and I’m not confident he has hardworking Nevada families’ best interests at heart. That’s why I voted no on his confirmation.” ###
