Trump Orders EPA To ‘Zero Out’ Global Warming Programs

WINNING!!!

From the Daily Caller:
The White House is pushing for significant cuts to EPA programs and staff levels, giving a glimpse of how the Trump administration plans on devolving more control to the states. 
The budget plan sent from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to EPA leadership calls for eliminating dozens of programs, including at least 16 that have to do with global warming and implementing former President Barack Obama’s climate agenda. 
OMB also requested a 30 percent cut in grants to states and a 20 percent reduction in EPA’s workforce through buy-outs and layoffs. 
In total, President Donald Trump is calling for a roughly 25 percent cut to EPA’s budget — about $2 billion. 
The cuts are laid out in a letter sent by William Becker, the executive director of the National Association of Clean Air Agencies (NACAA), to his group’s member state and local regulators. 
Becker said NACAA received the “pass back” budget information sent from OMG to EPA Monday, according to InsideEPA.
