What’s Happening:Every community deserves to breathe clean air and live in clean, healthy neighborhoods. But decades of broken zoning and land use policies have concentrated toxic pollution in Chicago’s communities, especially low-income, Black, and brown neighborhoods. The Hazel Johnson Cumulative Impacts Ordinance, named after the late Chicagoan and mother of the environmental justice movement Hazel M. Johnson, is a citywide policy designed to protect communities from unfair pollution burdens by considering the combined effects of multiple pollution sources—such as traffic, industrial plants, and other environmental stressors—on public health. The more transparent and fair approach to permitting outlined in the ordinance will bring community members and alders to the table for a transparent process that helps ensure every Chicagoan lives in an environment that safeguards their health. What you can do:Use this form to send a message of support to your alderperson to urge them to co-sponsor and vote “yes” on the Hazel Johnson Cumulative Impacts Ordinance. |
