The Senate considered President Trump’s nomination of Jeffrey Bossert Clark to be Assistant Attorney General for the Environmental and Natural Resources Division (ENRD) within of the Department of Justice. The mission of the ENRD n is to enforce the Nation’s environmental laws to ensure clean air, water and land for all Americans. Clark is an outspoken opponent of environmental and public health protection, and a prominent denier of climate change. He has spent his career undermining the protections ENRD is tasked with enforcing, making him unfit to lead the division. On October 10, the Senate confirmed Clark to be Assistant Attorney General of the ENRD by a vote of 53-44 (Senate roll call vote 227). NO IS THE PRO-ENVIRONMENT VOTE.
