BOOM! At least they're leaving it open for MORE cuts. Hmmm. Let's see. State department, bailed out execs. Border patrol, bailed out head cheese. Secret Service agent won't protect as she contracted to do. Hopefully soon EX-secret service employee. EPA? Where's the resignations? Freakin' winning is AWESOME!

Dear Mr Trump,
Kill it while you can. Richard Nixon signed it into law to appease the liberals of his time, and it was a monumental mistake. Again, kill it while you can.

50% a year for the next four years, sounds about right.

It is a good start. This agency should not even exist.
To: SoFloFreeper
Actually Trump can eliminate the EPA immediately if he desires.
The EPA was brought into being by Nixon using an Executive Order, I assume it can be taken out of existence by one.
Of course the Liberals would go nuts.
To: SpaceBar
Nixon signed it into law to appease the liberals of his time, and it was a monumental mistake Back then I'd be on the road from college (Murray, KY) to my home in Indiana. I had to pass through Louisville and always knew when I was getting close because my eyes started to burn. I could stand on the sidewalk in Louisville in the summer and not be able to see two blocks away because of the pollution.
I think the EPA accomplished the desired effect initially but ran out of legitimate reasons for their existence. But make no mistake, they accomplished some good under Nixon. Subsequently they just became the enforcement arm of whatever president was in office.
They've outlived their usefulness and need to be eliminated, just like many other alphabet agencies.

Using common core math, that would be 200% right?

Reduce EPA to an 8-person advisory panel to Congress.
Fill it with experts, not activists.
No powers to make regulations any kind.

14/13ths would be optimal. Get the missing 13th from ATF.
