Sen. Bernie Sanders said Wednesday that President-elect Trump’s nominee to head the Environmental Protection Agency won’t get his support because of his lack of concern over the earthquakes in Oklahoma connected to fracking.
“If that’s the kind of EPA administrator you will be, you are not going to get my vote,” said the former Democratic candidate for president, after prodding Attorney General Scott Pruitt over his public stance regarding earthquakes in his state at a Wednesday confirmation hearing.
