League of Conservation Voters

Former NY-01 Rep. Lee Zeldin will take the helm of a federal agency in the crosshairs of the Trump administration's plans to dismantle the "deep state" and kill regulations that the President-elect says impede economic growth.

The League of Conservation Voters' 2020 scorecard ranked the NY-01 representative at the bottom of New York's congressional delegation based on 21 votes taken last year on issues ranging from PFAS cleanup and air pollution to land conservation and renewable energy.
