Trump's plans for the EPA will stifle scientific research
Donald Trump's war against the environment continues. Yesterday the administration froze all grants and contracts at the EPA. It also barred the agency from sharing information with the public and the press as well as remove all references to climate change from its website.

This would effectively turn the White House into a gatekeeper standing between the EPA's research and the taxpaying public who fund it.
