Senate Committee Hearing on Nomination of Lee Zeldin to Be Administrator of U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Scheduled for January 16, 2025, at 10:00 a.m.

Senator Shelly Moore Capito (R-WV), Chair of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works (EPW), has scheduled a hearing on the Nomination of Lee Zeldin to be Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for Thursday, January 16, at 10:00 a.m. The hearing will be held in room 406 of the Senate Dirksen Office Building and will be viewable by webcast as well.

It will be interesting to hear what Mr. Zeldin shares about his priorities as EPA Administrator and how the Trump Administration will approach environmental protection. The question-and-answer period will provide insights into priority issues for both Republican and Democratic Senators — and may identify potential areas for bipartisan cooperation during the 119th Congress.
