Michael O. Leavitt

Michael O. Leavitt took over as EPA administrator in November 2003, after serving as governor of Utah. Leavitt spoke to the Press Club about clean air policy in a time of economic globalism.

"Cleaning the air is a generational relay," Leavitt said in his speech. "Each generation and each administration... builds upon the work of those who came before. Our goal is to accelerate the velocity of environmental progress and to do it in a way that maintains our national competitiveness."
