EPA broke law by building Pruitt's secure phone.

The Environmental Protection Agency violated government spending laws by installing a $43,000 secure “privacy booth” in the office of Administrator Scott Pruitt, the Government Accountability Office has concluded.
..............................
The soundproof booth cost $24,570 when it was ordered last August from Acoustical Solutions in Richmond, Virginia. But site preparation and construction to reconfigure an office space for the booth boosted the overall pricetag. It cost $3,470 to do concrete floor leveling, another $7,978 to remove closed-circuit TV equipment and $3,350 to paint. The total cost was about $43,000.
According to an invoice, the roughly 4-foot-by-4-foot booth built into a storage closet off Pruitt’s office was to include “silenced ventilation,” a lockable door and an acoustic window meant to keep out sounds. The EPA asked contractors to ensure it could support a 10-pound telephone and a shelf.
