WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. President-elect Donald Trump said on Monday he will appoint former congressman Lee Zeldin to run the Environmental Protection Agency.

“He will ensure fair and swift deregulatory decisions that will be enacted in a way to unleash the power of American businesses, while at the same time maintaining the highest environmental standards, including the cleanest air and water on the planet,” Trump said in a post on his social media platform Truth Social.
