.@GovPritzker and @EPA reached a deal for environmental assessment of proposed pollution-producing industry prior to construction. This comes after four years of community organizing to protect low-income areas already burdened by environmental injustices. chicago.suntimes.com/environment/20…
Lead is a neurotoxin that has negative long term impacts on health and early childhood development. Drinking water contaminated with lead has disproportionately burdened low-income communities of color. We need to move quickly to replace lead service lines fairly and equitably.
There is no safe amount of lead. In Chicago, low-income and communities of color are drinking significant amount of lead in their homes and school. Thank you to all who joined this rally that demanded local and federal action to #gettheleadout @NRDC @bridges_puentes @SE_TaskForce
Lead is a harmful neurotoxin that doesn’t belong in our drinking water. NRDC's Erik Olson calls dangerous lead pipes "ticking time bombs” in the latest @ABC documentary “Our America: Trouble On Tap." on.nrdc.org/3LM7Ta3
🚨 It’s Rally Time 🚨 Communities like mine have registered lead in drinking water levels 73 times the EPA limit. The time to act is NOW. Please come out and show your support for clean drinking water in Chicago! eventbrite.com/e/lets-get-the…

📺 The trailer for @ABC new docu-series "Our America: Trouble on Tap," premiering April 21, reveals the shocking reality of how access to safe drinking water in the US depends on one's zip code. Don't miss expert insights from @NRDC's Erik Olson.
Chicago’s slow-moving efforts to replace nearly 400,000 lead service lines has resulted in families facing a complicated process under the Equity Lead Service Line Replacement program. @GinaRamirez311 talks about her own mother’s journey. wbez.org/stories/the-lo…
