EPA Administrator Michael Regan to Step Down at End of This Month
Statement of EDF President Fred Krupp
"Whether you live in a rural community or a large city, no matter your zip code or your income, you have cleaner air to breathe, cleaner water to drink and a safer climate because of EPA Administrator Michael Regan. He is a generational leader who is so effective at lifting the lives of Americans because he listens to them and meets them where they are — sometimes even on their front porches. We are grateful for his public service and we also admire the way he's always done it, with humility and sincerity, building justice from the ground up. Michael Reagan is leaving an EPA that is empowered and equipped to keep working for all of us."
