Growing up in the Mon Valley, I've seen how polluters cause our communities to suffer disproportinately from asthma & other illnesses. The fight for environmental justice is vital here in Western PA. We deserve to breathe clean air, drink clean water, & live healthy lives.

The Trump administration has rolled back federal environmental regulations to make it easier for the corporate polluters who bankrolled his reelection campaign to profit off our families, our public health, and our planet. I wrote about how over a year in, we can't fall into despair. We have to continue fighting for our communities and choose people over profit.
"We can either keep letting polluters rig the rules and line their pockets, or we can stand up for our communities, organize, and demand better," writes @RepSummerLee.
The Trump administration has spent the past year handing polluters free passes while families in western Pennsylvania suffer from some of the worst air quality in the nation, face rising cancer rates, and watch their neighborhoods flood year after year.

Pennsylvanians are already feeling the effects of climate change through more frequent and severe extreme weather. Hundreds of lives and billions of dollars in damage have been lost. The EPA must maintain the Endangerment Finding to protect communities from the harms of climate change.
Real environmental justice is rooted in community, accountability, and action. I'm launching the People's Environmental Justice Caucus alongside my colleagues and leaders who have shaped this movement to build federal policy that puts the people first.
