She honed her, uhh, communication skills as a spokesperson for the coal industry & others. Zincke saw a proven performer & hired her to represent industry interests via the Interior Dept. He's dumping conservationists by the side of he road. She already threw out a couple of red herrings you pounced on like hungry skunk.

It's a good thing she knows how to work with capitalists and industry and I'm happy she has the job. I'm glad he's dumping socialists and communists before they make the United States more like Venezuela.

Pot, meet kettle.

An old man that spends his time shitposting on a tech forum, because his kids don't visit him for obvious reasons, doesn't get to play victim.

With Zinke in charge, the agency works for industry, not with them. Conservation interests take the high hard one, obviously.

It's your politics that turned Venezuela into the shithole it is. I'm glad the Sec. of the Interior supports capitalism and industry.

So cute when you're desperate. Just own it- they're gonna mine, log, drill & graze the living shit right out of public lands under Zinke's leadership. When his current gig ends, he'll have his choice of nice, soft feathered industry nests to land in.

That's the triple double down into duh-versionary Commie-calling, I take it. I bet those board members who resigned were all Commies, too, part of the Deep State Shadow govt Commie conspiracy.

Nope, most were Democrats as expected, a few from eco groups, but all partisan opponents of the President and his choice for Secretary of the Interior.

Scientists sue EPA over advisory board cuts

Washington (CNN)A group of scientists is suing the Environmental Protection Agency over the agency's move to cut scientists from advisory boards and committees who were also receiving federal grants for studies.

In October, the EPA announced it would not allow scientists to serve on EPA boards if they were also receiving federal grants in an attempt to keep the advisers "independent and free from any real, apparent or potential interference with their ability to objectively serve as a committee member," an EPA news release said.
However, scientists involved in the lawsuit argue the announcement was unnecessary and violates the Federal Advisory Committee Act.
"The Directive is arbitrary, without any factual or legal grounding, and violates the Federal Advisory Committee Act, which requires advisory committees to be fairly balanced and protected from inappropriate influence by the appointing authority," the organization Protect Democracy said on its website.
Asked for comment, an EPA spokesman said the agency doesn't comment on pending litigation.
Protect Democracy is joined by the Union of Concerned Scientists in the lawsuit against the EPA administrator, Scott Pruitt, which was filed on Tuesday.
"This is an abuse of power and an affront to the scientific integrity of the EPA and the federal government," Joshua Goldman, senior legal analyst for the Union of Concerned Scientists, said in a press release. "This directive singles out scientists from the nonprofit and academic sector -- recognized experts in their field who want to serve the public -- and asks them to choose between public service and their scientific work."
