yes some Trump orders can help but... since EPA is a statutory agency, it needs to be extinguished by statute

the ball’s really in Congress’ court...

“since EPA is a statutory agency, it needs to be extinguished by statute”

Was the EPA created by a specific piece of legislation/enacted law?

My understanding is the EPA was created by Nixon’s exec order “Reorganization Plan No 3”, which was approved by congress.

Should this be the case, it would be fairly easy to eliminate it, probably in the same manner it was created.
