Taxpayers spent about $3.5 million on security for Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt during his first year in office, according to records released by the agency Friday.
Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt spent more than $120,000 in taxpayer funds last summer for a trip to Italy that included a meeting of G-7 ministers and a private tour of the Vatican.
A spokesperson for the Environmental Protection Agency would not answer whether Administrator and former Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt had considered resigning amid scrutiny of recent trips.
