WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden on Friday plans to sign an executive order that would make “environmental justice” the mission of federal agencies, the White House said.
The Democratic administration wants to ensure that poverty, race and ethnic status do not lead to worse exposure to pollution and environmental harm.
Biden will sign the executive order to continue delivering on “the most ambitious environmental justice agenda in our nation’s history,” the White House said in a statement.
The order tells executive branch agencies to use data and scientific research to understand how pollution hurts people’s health, so that work can be done to limit any damage. It also establishes the White House Office of Environmental Justice, which will help coordinate efforts across the government.
Under the order, executive agencies would be required to inform nearby communities if toxic substances were released from a federal facility.
The EPA last year formed its own Office of Environmental Justice and External Civil Rights, merging three existing EPA programs to oversee a portion of Democrats’ $60 billion investment in environmental justice initiatives created by last year’s Inflation Reduction Act.

Commonly known among the third world commies as wealth distribution. We need to sue the ass of the Brandon administration so we can enjoy a little America the Republic “justice”.
All done by fiat - bypassing congress. What a nice guy.
America needs justice from the criminality of Black Lives Matter
A murder of Crows, a Pride of Lions, a gaggle of Geese
A riot of Black youths
Brain dead, decrepit POS has no idea what he’s signing. Just as long as he gets ice cream afterward. I hate these pigs.
This will turn into a lawsuit paradise not dissimilar to the lead paint racket.
Yeah, that’ll be just about the ONLY justice going on in the good old usa.. :(
Not their job.
Except when trains derail in predominantly white communities….
All part of the “looting” phase of the fall of the American Empire. We fell slowly over 30-40 years, the last ten has been rapid.
We couldn’t keep it.
The communists are quite literally destroying us I really doubt there will be anything left by 2024.
“President Joe Biden on Friday plans to sign an executive order that would make “environmental justice” the mission of federal agencies, the White House said.“
So many things wrong with this sentence…
1. Biden is the current Resident..
2. This nation was NOT set up to be under ‘Executive Orders’..
3. The phrase “environmental justice” has NO basis in reality; it’s like saying: banana accounting…
3. If Biden is doing this, yet it’s the “White House” that’s ANNOUNCING that Biden is doing this… just WHO is “the White House”???
Yeah, you'll probably find most of that money in private accounts in the Ukraine..
This nation is burning down, grab what you can as you leave..
March was uncommonly cold this year, while southern Florida was warm. Why do they get to be warm? I want justice!!!!
It is time to defund the House on the Hill and the Senate. They are no longer needed. We got the Demented Pedophile running it all now. The whole damn country has become his box of Legos. Defund the government. Defund every agency. We’ve got Mr. Demento FJB now and his carnival freak show administration.
I know this sounds like a pipe dream now but if every AMERICAN told this asshole and his cronies to “bugger off”, there’s nothing they could do. It may be that we’re approaching this point; it should have happened long ago.

You mean to tell me after 50 years of this nonsense they still need to “understand” how pollution hurts people’s health?
Here is the kicker. So are they now attributing climate change to pollution? Is that the new narrative?
Paul Revere is about to ride again!
It is totally unfair that poor people are forced to live in areas where a lot of people litter
That won't happen again.
