A public health crisis is the worst possible moment to weaken protections from pollution. Everyone deserves clean air and clean water. But the COVID-19 threatens people with pre-existing health conditions or those who lack health insurance most of all, and studies show there is a high correlation between these risks and low-income communities of color where polluting facilities are typically sited. Exposing people to more pollution is no way to protect public health or the economy.
The COVID-19 crisis should NOT be “Christmas Come Early” for polluters! Please email officials and the TCEQ and RRC TODAY and tell them not to give polluters a free pass.
