The EPA Head's Controversial Room Rental Is Not His Only Tie to Natural Gas

The head of the Environmental Protection Agency is under fire after news that he rented from the wife of a lobbyist who works on energy issues, drawing further attention to his connections with the natural gas industry.

An agency lawyer says there was nothing wrong with EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt's decision to rent a room in a Washington, D.C., condo for $50 a night, but critics say the owners' ties to the energy industry raise red flags.
