Reason # 98: Protect the Environment, Not Polluters

Russell Train served as Administrator of the EPA under presidents Nixon and Ford. In 1991, he was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President George H.W. Bush. Mr. Train calls the current administration's environmental record, "appalling, with very, very few exceptions." "It’s almost as if the motto of the administration in power in Washington today is not environmental protection, but polluter protection."
