Good news about EPA nominee Pruitt.

[kstewart33]

Senator Susan Collins tweets that she will not support him:

After careful consideration, I have decided to oppose the confirmation of Scott Pruitt for EPA Administrator.

1. Good news, but as we speak fuckface is preparing EO on EPA that will destroy

it's ability to protect us.

2. Yet she supported DeVos?

Worthless...

3. Collins did not support Devos

And voted no. Likely because McConnell gave her the green light to vote no. So yes indeed worthless.

[Guilded Lilly]

5. yeah, Collins supported DeVos in committee and that sent her to full vote of the Senate. Gutless.

6. Right

In any case. Collins pretends to be a moderate and will vote with dems when McConnell gives her permission. The voters of Maine keep falling for it.

[Egnever]

7. Well that denies the reality that she has voted with the dems multiple times over the years

Sometimes on key votes where she made a difference.

She is not pretending. Ask a freeper what they think of her.

[Tatiana]

8. Ultimately she did.

She (along with Murkowski) are members of the Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions. If either had voted not to move her out of committee, we'd not be talking about DeVos or wondering when our tax dollars will be diverted to born-again religious institutions.

4. This must mean Pruitt has the votes

Collins always waits for that so Mitch can give her a pass
