"[Pennsylvania] Department of Environmental Protection Secretary John Quigley resigned Friday afternoon, following several news reports about a controversial email he sent last month to environmental groups.
Governor Tom Wolf issued a statement thanking Quigley for his service, without offering any details about the nature of his departure.
'The email is the straw that broke the camel’s back,' says a source close to the Wolf administration. '[Quigley] has no relationships with the legislature and has angered a lot of people within the administration. It’s a long line of things that have become a problem.'"
