Pence wasn't alone. Pruitt, the EPA nominee, was asked during his Senate process, In a written questionnaire by Sen. Cory Booker whether he had ever conducted state business using personal email accounts. Pruitt responded: “I use only my official OAG email address and government issued phone to conduct official business.”  In a separate proceeding, a judge ordered that thousands of his emails with oil companies be released within a few days, and Democrats asked that his confirmation be delayed until after the release. Republicans refused to consider the delay and confirmed him. When the emails were released, it turned out that there was another perjurer in the Trump cabinet —Pruitt had used his private email account thousands of times to conduct state business.
