The message is clear: Gov. @maura_healey, tell @EversourceMA a dangerous substation in a flood zone has no place in the environmental justice community of Eastie! BIPOC and low income communities are not sacrifice zones. #NoEastieSubstation #NoSacrificeZones

We need siting reform to ensure that EJ communities no longer bear the burdens of our energy infrastructure. In the meantime, we join our sister organization to say #NoEastieSubstation!

Today, I gave a speech I’ve waited 15 years to give on the passage of a comprehensive environmental justice bill in Vermont. I dedicate it to all of the Vermonters who have struggled at the intersection of poverty, pollution, and power. #vtpoli
