The Environmental Protection Agency tried to show praise for President Trump’s climate change executive order on Thursday but instead may have done the opposite.
In an email sent out Thursday morning, attempting to show what industry groups and lawmakers are saying about Trump’s action, the EPA included the remarks of a leading critic of Trump’s anti-climate change efforts, Democratic Sen. Tom Carper of Delaware, instead of the remarks of one of his champions, Sen. Shelley Moore Capito, R-W.Va., from coal country, but attributed the quote to Capito.
