Today is National Women’s Equality Day -- the day women in the U.S. won the right to vote. It’s also a day to reflect on the women who champion environmental equality for all women and girls. Today we highlight some of their accomplishments. #WomensEquality

We expect more from our legislative leaders. Right now is a key moment for @CAgovernor and legislators to #FixSB131 and ensure that protections for public health, safety, and the environment remain intact for communities throughout #California

PUBLISHED TODAY: A first-of-its-kind analysis from our own @YannaiKashtan and researchers from @StanfordWoods reveals how much nitrogen dioxide (NO₂) people actually breathe from both indoor and outdoor sources — and the findings are significant. For many households, gas and propane stoves account for up to half of total NO₂ exposure, a pollutant linked to asthma, heart disease, and lung disease. It also shows that upgrading to electric or induction cooktops can cut total NO₂ exposure by as much as 50%. This landmark study gives policymakers, public health agencies, and communities a more complete picture of where exposure occurs — and where interventions can have the biggest impact.

In 2 weeks, Westlands Water District will vote on a project that could impact farmworker families for decades. Development without protections is exploitation! Join Futuro Justo Para el Oeste de Fresno on Dec. 16 at 9 AM to demand accountability and community benefits.

Thank you to these legislative leaders for standing with environmental justice communities! Your no/abstain vote on SB 237 & SB 614 shows commitment to protecting San Joaquin Valley Communities from increased oil drilling and carbon pipeline impacts. #EnvironmentalJustice #SJV

Extreme heat is a public health emergency for millions of Californians. For Pedro Zacarias & his family, it isn’t just a threat outdoors, but within their home as well. Read more from Pedro and why he’s urging state leaders to pass #SB655 at the link 🔗 in our bio @CAgovernor

📢 Yesterday, Cesar Aguirre of the @ccejn spoke before CA lawmakers and shared his story of living next door to oil and gas drilling. More drilling would mean more destruction, toxic pollution, and harm to our communities. We stand with Cesar and frontline communities everywhere!
