"Dems Could Unravel Zinke's Big Plans"

"A Democratic-controlled House would bring the hammer down on the Trump administration's Interior Department.

It could get messy, fast.

Oversight hearings would accelerate from slow pitch to hardball. Lawmakers who now can't get their letters answered would wield gavels and subpoenas. Trump's Interior budget proposals for the next two years would be dead before their arrival on Capitol Hill.

Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke's big idea of reorganizing the department of some 70,000 employees could shrink or simply vanish. Top Interior vacancies could become even harder to fill, as potential contenders weigh the escalating hassles."
