Congressman Jim Sensenbrenner, R-Wis., sent President Obama a letter Friday requesting he dismantle the White House Office of Energy and Climate Policy.
Sensenbrenner said in the letter Carol Browner's is exit as Director of the White House Office of Energy and Climate Change Policy makes this an opportune time to do away with the office and replace it with something more transparent.
The letter pointed to an August 2010 report published by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the United States Geological Survey claiming 74 percent of the oil in Gulf of Mexico was gone in the aftermath of the oil spill, a fact Sensenbrenner said was being contested by an official from NOAA itself and others in the scientific community.
Sensenbrenner said the issues surrounding the report ""raise serious questions about the integrity of scientific information released by your Administration.""
