Employees that looked pornography on their work computer and a third accessed child pornography at work. The Inspector General found another employee made unwelcomed advances between female. Utah congressman is chair of the House Oversight committee. Weve come to order, without objection the chair has authorized a recess at any time. Todays hearing is entitled kmming employee misconduct at the epa. Its a topic weve addressed a few times but it doesnt seem to be getting better. We will continue to highlight this as long as it takes because in my opinion the epa is one of the most toxic places in the federal government to work and if you dont get rid of the toxicity of the employees there at the epa, were doing a great disservice to this country. Most of them are good hardworking, they care, work hard, but you have some bad apples at the epa and theyre not being dealt with and not being addressed. Well look forward to talking about this. The Inspector General has done some good quality w
Allegation occurs of misconduct, we investigate it. And as agent sullivan or director sullivan specified, one of the things that occurs on many investigations is the investigation does not find any wrongdoing. When it does, we take appropriate followup action to hold the employee accountable. Well, i would like to point out that this is not the only affidavit like this. There are several others.

But do you believe it is appropriate for the epa personnel to pressure and intimidate citizens into endorsing the epas agenda . Congressman, im not familiar with the specifics that youre referring to.

The kept going back to wages are going to decrease if you become right to work, youll hurt the worker. We said, no, thats not true at all. We showed that wages increase at a higher rate when youre in a right to work state. The other thing we ran into was, Companies Want to move to right to work states because they want to pay people less. So that was interesting. So they were saying that, you know, Site Selectors, we know who they are, what they do, this is one of almost their standard questions is, are you a right to work state, are you not. And theres plenty of companies who have moved to states that they have specifically said were going here because this is a key component to it.
