Well, the difference would be on the operational side and the policy side.
On the operational side, we're doing more with less.
We came in with over 16,000 employees.
We ended last year with about 12 and a half thousand employees.
We are prioritizing our core statutory obligations.
rather than sending bandwidth and resources towards partisan pet projects.
We, as a result, inherited a lot of backlogs.
We're talking about 14,000 in the pesticide review, hundreds of state implementation plans, small refinery exemption requests, blown deadlines on setting renewable volume obligations, new chemical review.
goes on of all different kinds of backlogs that we inherited when we came in in January of 2025 and we're working to get through all of it.
We've done an agency-wide reorganization and maybe most importantly or the highest profile item on the operational side is to implement a zero tolerance policy for any waste and abuse.
Our annual operating budget is about $10 billion a year.
I've saved about $30 billion in my first year.
And that savings was found with regards to canceled grants, real estate consolidations, staff efficiencies, canceled media subscriptions.
We closed an EPA museum that just about nobody knew about or even visited.
So we're saving the taxpayers a lot of money on the policy side.
We inherited a big mess as it relates to rules that were finalized, especially in 2023 and 2024, seeking to strangulate out of existence entire sectors of our economy.
The Biden EPA believed that in order to protect the environment, we had to suffocate a lot of our economy.
We believe that we can protect the environment and grow the economy.
So we are going through a process that would amount to
More deregulation in one year than entire presidential administrations have done in the past across all agencies of past presidencies.
