Lee Zeldin said the EPA would slash protections regulating areas such as tailpipe pollution, waterway protections and power plant emissions. The move comes as President Donald Trump and his allies continue their push to dismantle or radically restructure federal agencies they see as obstacles to their agenda. Trump has issued an executive order calling on federal agencies to repeal 10 regulations for every new one they impose.
