JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Mississippi announced Friday that it has designated a federal attorney to focus on environmental justice and public health.
U.S. Attorney Clay Joyner said that Assistant U.S. Attorney Rob Coleman will serve as the office’s environmental justice coordinator. Joyner said the move is part of a “new initiative to address environmental justice and public health concerns in the Northern District of Mississippi.”
“Strong and fair enforcement of environmental and public health laws protects our precious natural resources and ensures a healthy environment for everyone to live, learn, play, and work,” Joyner said in a news release. “Your reporting of environmental and public health concerns supports environmental protection, environmental justice, and helps us protect the community from harmful violations of federal health and safety laws.”
The office said its efforts are part of a broader U.S. Department of Justice environmental justice plan aimed at remedying environmental violations committed against “underserved communities that have been historically marginalized and overburdened, including low-income communities, communities of color, and Tribal and Indigenous communities.”

Does “environmental justice” require rounding up conservatives and placing them in concentration camps?
OFFS! Sure it pays EXTREMELY well! Some may not be visible but you know. (wink wink)
But we have worked so hard to make sure that all environmental issues only affect women and minorities...The last thing we need are these jokers laying all of our plans to waste
I just asked my Magic 8-Ball: Does he start by getting Jackson clean water again?
SIGNS POINT TO NO
Good grief! Mississippi is poor enough as it is. Hey, I know, let’s get an environ-MENTAL attorney to ruin it some more.
Want to bet you’ll never get that job unless you’re a Nazi
“Environmental justice”, like all forms of social justice, is really redistribution, i.e. theft.
Do these duties include stopping corrupt city officials from failing to provide running water to citizens in Jackson?
Utter garbage.
I can’t see how it is constitutional.
What is environmental justice? I can’t stand these people that change the meaning of things.
I was raised in Northern Mississippi.
Not much there but farmlands and pulpwood forests.................
HOCUS POCUS
I’ll think the point they were trying to convey was “Environmental Justice “.
I may have to read it again just to be sure.🐸
I’m sure there’s a liberal on this site that can help. Please excuse my ignorance but can someone please explain exactly what Environmental Justice is and how it helps anyone? And while you’re at it, place also explain what Social Justice is and you don’t need to emphasize nor explain government handout programs. It’s common knowledge the social / ethnic equity in any of those programs are rigged.
Cool.
I’m currently working in in Robinsonville just north of Tunica. Your right farmland as far as the eye can see. Mississippi like all states I’ve lived has it charm. Damn Hot also! ☀️🔥
Only After they loot and pillage giving the spoils to their strongest followers. Anyone objecting must be one of ‘them’ suffer the same fate.
Has nothing to do with liberty.
