EPA Chairman Scott Pruitt On Potential Ramifications Of Pulling Out Of The Paris Climate Agreement: We Are The United States, We Don’t Lose Our Seat At The Table
“Absolutely we need to exit Paris because it’s a bad business deal for this country and the President has talked about an America first strategy in trade and an America first strategy in protecting our border and what Paris represents is an America last strategy with respect to the environment.

For those who say we are going to lose our seat at the table, we are the United States, we don’t lose our seat at the table.”
