ALT For decades, Chicago's frontline communities have organized & advocated for better conditions to improve quality of life in their neighborhoods. Segregation & environmental racism continuously harm Chicago's most vulnerable communities through sacrifice zones created by industry, putting health & future generations at risk. In May 2022, the City of Chicago, alongside community leaders & organizations, began the Cumulative Impacts Assessment to understand how environmental burdens & other stressors impact neighborhoods differently. In 2023, the City & partners began developing an ordinance based on these findings to help address the burdens frontline communities face. The ordinance will: - Define Environmental & Climate Justice - Create an Advisory Board - Address zoning requirements to consider cumulative health impacts before approving new developments We need your support to pass the Hazel M. Johnson Ordinance!
