EPA blows millions on PR initiatives, bonuses and randomness
A new report on the Environmental Protection Agency’s use of taxpayer money found that the agency is spending millions of dollars on just about everything but the environment.
According to the report, out from transparency nonprofit Open the Books, the EPA spent more than $15 million dollars on outside marketing and public relations between 2000 and 2014 despite having 200 full-time PR workers on staff.
The agency’s full-time PR staff cost taxpayers an additional $142 million in salaries and $1.5 million in bonuses since 2007.
The report also found several other areas of questionable EPA spending.
