On Friday, just in time for Earth Day, the Biden administration announced the signing of a new executive order that the president claims will embed “environmental justice into the work of federal agencies to achieve real, measurable progress that communities can count on.” As part of that new executive order, a new White House Office of Environmental Justice will be created.
So-called environmental justice is at the core of the new order and, as with everything in our new “woke” world, combating racism will be at the core of the new office’s mission.
“For far too long, communities across our country have faced persistent environmental injustice through toxic pollution, underinvestment in infrastructure and critical services, and other disproportionate environmental harms often due to a legacy of racial discrimination including redlining,” a White House “fact sheet” claimed. “These communities with environmental justice concerns face even greater burdens due to climate change.”
The new order supposedly looks to ensure that, among other things, people of all colors and creeds will have cleaner air and water; reduced risks from asthma, cancer, and other health problems associated with the environment; and the benefits of clean transportation and housing.
“With this action, the President is working to ensure that all people — regardless of race, background, income, ability, Tribal affiliation, or zip code — can benefit from the vital safeguards enshrined in our nation’s foundational environmental and civil rights laws,” the fact sheet claims.
The new White House office will be headed by an as-yet unnamed federal chief environmental justice officer, who will be tasked with the responsibility of coordinating environmental justice policies across the entire federal government.

I know, it’s embarrassing!
He is not President Trump. He can do as he pleases and Congress,with the exception of Margie Taylor Greene, is deaf, dumb, and blind. MTG fights.
I want this old fossil to shuck off this mortal coil.

Pass the last two years cured me of it.
Joe Biden, John Kerry, and their fellow ancient ‘60s and ‘70s “activists.” Trying to recapture their youth by taking us all back to 1971.
BINGO. I bet they will totally ignore this incident because too many of the victims are WHITE.
Prove me wrong.

How about Anti-Corruption Justice with 12 Biden’s getting big payoffs from Foreign Regimes?
No one is above the Law?
