"Week Ahead: Interior, Energy Chiefs To Defend Trump Budget"

"Two members of President Trump's cabinet are heading to the Senate in the coming week to defend the administration's proposed environment and energy cuts.

Ryan Zinke, the secretary of the Interior, will testify about the budget at a Senate Energy and Natural Resources (ENR) Committee hearing on Tuesday. Two days later, he'll speak on the matter before the House Natural Resources Committee on Thursday.

Energy Secretary Rick Perry will testify on Trump's Department of Energy (DOE) spending plan before the House Appropriations Committee on Tuesday, and the Senate energy committee on Thursday. It will be his first testimony before Congress since he took office in February."
