House Oversight Chairman Trey Gowdy (R-SC) indicated he has begun inquiring into EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt’s activities, according to a video shot by activists on Friday, Politico reports.
Said Gowdy: “I don’t have a lot patience for that kind of stuff.”
“Gowdy didn’t say whether his committee has begun a formal investigation of Pruitt or some more preliminary review, but he said that public servants must ‘be a good steward’ of taxpayer money.”
