Congressman August Pfluger is set to host a press conference on Tuesday, April 15th, in Midland, Texas. The event follows a visit from U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Regional Administrator Scott Mason and Congresswoman Julie Fedorchak. The visit, taking place in the Permian Basin, will include an oil and gas site tour and a roundtable discussion with producers, local leaders, and EPA officials.
The press conference aims to update the media regarding the "efforts of the Trump Administration, Congress, and the EPA to cut the burdensome red tape previously imposed on the Permian Basin by the Biden Administration."
The event will feature Congressman Pfluger, Congresswoman Fedorchak, EPA Regional Administrator Scott Mason, and potentially other local leaders.
The press gathering is scheduled at 500 W Wall St, Midland, TX 79701, on the north side of Wall St, starting at 1:45 pm CT. Media representatives are requested to arrive at 1:30 pm and must send an RSVP to Bethany.Holden@mail.house.gov by Monday, April 14, 2025.
