Zeldin in March[0], announcing climate change rule rollbacks:

> "We are driving a dagger straight into the heart of the climate change religion to drive down cost of living for American families, unleash American energy, bring auto jobs back to the U.S. and more"

Does any of that list look like the goals of an Environmental Protection Agency?

No. EPA merely concedes that the process used to establish the new rules was not lawful. TFA implies that EPA means to restart the rulemaking process and -presumably- make roughly the same rules as before.
