Jeffrey Clark: "Trump To Name Embattled Ex-Enviro Lawyer For Top Regs Job"

"Jeffrey Bossert Clark, who led the Justice Department’s Environment and Natural Resources Division during President Donald Trump’s first term, is the expected pick to lead the White House regulatory review office."

"President Donald Trump is expected to name his former top environmental attorney, Jeffrey Bossert Clark, to lead the White House regulatory review office, said two people familiar with the decision.

As the leader of the White House Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Clark would take control of an obscure but powerful office that reviews agency regulations. That office could take on increased significance under Trump, who has vowed to scale back rules, including eliminating 10 existing regulations for each new one created.

Clark, who led the Justice Department’s Environment and Natural Resources Division during Trump’s first stint in office, has been mired in controversy amid accusations that he attempted to help Trump subvert the 2020 presidential election."
