Demand Environmental Justice in Massachusetts!
Everyone deserves to live in a healthy, pollution-free environment.
But all too often, communities of color and low-income communities end up bearing the brunt of environmental pollution from dirty power plants, factories, highways, landfills, pipelines, and compressor stations.
True environmental justice means that no community disproportionately shoulders environmental burdens.
Massachusetts should lead the way in getting there.
I'm counting on you to make that happen.
Why is this important?
All too often, communities of color and low-income communities end up with dirty power plants or polluting factories as their neighbors. That's not right.
Massachusetts needs to pass legislation to ensure no community bears the brunt of environmental pollution.
The Commonwealth must treat all its residents equally and fairly, and passing strong environmental justice legislation will help ensure that happens.
Demand that your Massachusetts legislators take action to support environmental justice.
