President Donald J. Trump has confirmed Jessica Kramer as the Assistant Administrator for the Office of Water at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). This appointment has been met with praise from various political figures, highlighting Kramer's expertise in clean water and bipartisan solutions.
Kramer, who previously served as a Senior Advisor to EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin, will now work towards implementing the Powering the Great American Comeback Initiative. Her primary focus will be on advancing the EPA's core mission of protecting human health and the environment.
Senator Cynthia Lummis (R-WY) praised Kramer's appointment, stating that her confirmation marks a shift towards efficient, results-driven oversight. Senate Environment and Public Works Committee Chairman Shelley Moore Capito also commended Kramer's appointment, citing her extensive experience in developing and implementing water policy.
Senator Kevin Cramer (R-ND) expressed confidence in Kramer's ability to finalize a clear, durable, and workable WOTUS rule. Former EPA Assistant Administrator for Water Dave Ross believes that Kramer is uniquely qualified to lead the Office of Water at EPA, given her previous service in the very office she is now confirmed to lead.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis supports Kramer's nomination, citing her role in implementing Florida's 404 delegation from the federal government and defending it in court. America First Policy Institute Executive Vice President and Former Secretary of the Interior David Bernhardt commends the Senate for confirming Jessica Kramer, calling her an exceptional leader with deep regulatory expertise.
Former EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler also commended Kramer's confirmation, stating that she brings more to the position than anyone else. Kramer's professional journey includes approximately six years in the State of Wisconsin, where she served as an Assistant Attorney General and in the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources as an environmental enforcement specialist and attorney.
Prior to her role at the EPA, Kramer served as Deputy Secretary of Regulatory Programs at the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin congratulated Kramer on her confirmation, expressing his confidence in her ability to lead the Office of Water.
In a time when environmental policy is of utmost importance, Kramer's confirmation is seen as a significant step forward in ensuring the protection of human health and the environment. Her extensive experience and expertise are expected to contribute significantly to the EPA's initiatives.
