HEADLINE: Environmental Protection Agency
Whitman Resigns As EPA Administrator, Leaving A Mixed Environmental Legacy

ISSUE: Volume 13, Number 5 May 2003

ABSTRACT:

Christie Whitman recently announced her resignation as head of the federal Environmental Protection Agency, bringing to a close an occasionally-tempestuous relationship with the Bush White House over environmental policies. Whitman, who often received heavy criticism from opponents of the Bush administration, said in a letter to President Bush that she was leaving to spend more time with her family.

“As rewarding as the past two-and-a-half years have been for me professionally, it is time to return to my home and husband in New Jersey, which I love just as you do your home state of Texas,” Whitman wrote Bush.
