Executive
Carl Coe has been the leader of the DOGE team embedded within the EPA, where he has kept a remarkably low profile, even as other DOGE staffers like Cole Killian and Kathryn Armstrong Loving showed up in media reports. At the EPA, his primary focus would be on reducing the effectiveness of the agency through eliminating staff and whittling down regulations.
