WASHINGTON – Today, the White House announced the members of an Environmental Justice Advisory Council tasked with addressing current and historical environmental injustices on impacted communities. President Biden established the advisory council in January by executive order.  

The following is a statement from Abigail Dillen, Earthjustice president:

We look forward to working with the Biden administration and communities facing environmental injustice, to advance equitable climate solutions and fix the unjust pollution control system that has disproportionately burdened people color.”
