That's why we call them watermelons -- green on the outside, RED on the inside!
The only way the Greens would be satisfied with an Interior Secretary would be if John Muir was reanimated into a zombie.

We are the EPAs reason to be, but, like with so many things in our swamp these days, it has grown way too big for its britches and needs to be brought to heel.

Checks and balances. We needed the EPA to check and balance our nature and now we need to check and balance the EPA for the same reason.
The states can handle anything useful the EPA is doing, or else we need a Constitutional amendment to authorize the EPA.

So, I dont have a problem with a federal overseer of fair standards arbitrating where and where needed, because sooner or later it always is needed.
But, I do have a problem when somethings out of control, especially when that something has great power, but few checks and balances.
Like the EPA, for one swampy example.
