Comments on NEPA Rollbacks Affecting EJ Communities

Recently, the Trump Administration put out a rule that would remove important regulations in the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) which protects environmental justice communities. If implemented, the new rules would expedite permitting and prioritize efficiency over thorough analysis of the cumulative impacts and risk to EJ communities. 

NJEJA joined our partners at the Moving Forward Network, NRDC, and the Environmental Justice Health Alliance to express our opposition to these new rules as they will likely lead to further disproportionate impact on environmental justice communities across the country.
