Description
Join us for the launch of our 2025 Legislative Agenda! Join us during the lunch hour to learn more about our priority legislation, including the Cumulative Risk Burden (CURB) Pollution Act which aims to protect communities from harmful facilities, and our Right to Energy campaign, which seeks to ensure energy assistance for low-income residents in Washington State. This legislative session in Olympia is pivotal, as lawmakers will be addressing issues that directly impact environmental justice, public health, and economic equity. The incoming presidential administration poses challenges to our values and policy priorities. At the federal level, changes in energy policies and climate resilience strategies could significantly impact local actions, underscoring the urgency of our work. Amid these challenges, our agenda and advocacy this legislative session will focus on holding the legislature accountable to its commitments to climate justice, environmental justice, and the well-being of frontline communities. Front and Centered staff, alongside community members, will share insights during a brief presentation, followed by a questions and answer session with you and other participants. DATE/TIME: Tuesday, Jan. 7, 12:00 to 1:00pm LOCATION: On Zoom SPEAKERS: Details will be shared closer to the date of the briefing During the 2025 session, our statewide coalition is asking the legislature to put the focus back on frontline communities. We know that when our communities are engaged in creating solutions, we'll see better results for everyone in Washington State!
