Smaller airplanes still fly with lead-laced fuel, poisoning families that live near airports where these planes land 🚫😷🛩️ Today, @EPA acknowledged this major public health issue in an "endangerment finding." Now, it's time to act on it! Our statement: sierraclub.org/press-releases…

“In the US rates of childhood leukemia increased 35% from 1975-2019; childhood brain cancer rose by 33%. Today 1 in 285 Americans are diagnosed with cancer before age 20…an increase too rapid to be explained by genetics” 🔥 by ⁦@KristinaWritesthehill.com/opinion/health…

@The99stores say they’re “committed to the customers they serve”- so why won’t they follow @dollartree & commit to phase out chemicals like PFAS & phthalates in their products that have been linked to serious health conditions? Tell ‘em to protect shoppers bit.ly/3Rkl7OO

There is a historic heat wave in Texas, with many areas topping 117°. High humidity makes the heat more brutally dangerous. Gov. Abbott just signed a bill nullifying local requirements to give workers water breaks. We still have no federal heat standards.

- An Ode To #ToriBowie- In the hush of an unspoken goodbye, Beneath the shadow of a summer sky, The light of a life, with a name well-known, Tori Bowie, departed, all alone. In rooms of gold, where victories were sung, In echoes of the races she had run, In the wake of glory, of dreams now lost, Lies the chilling reality of a heavy cost. She, a titaness on the track, Sprinting ahead, no looking back, Held an unborn promise, a spark of life, Struggled, suffered, in silent strife. Oh, where were the hands, the safety net, When in her hour of need, death she met? Where were the voices, the healing care, To echo her name, in the chilling air? A nation that revels in her speed, Should not falter in her time of need. Tori Bowie, a name worth more than gold, A tale of sorrow, that must be told. In the face of statistics, stark and cold, In the memory of a hero, brave and bold, A call to action, loud and clear, The strengthening of Black Maternal care is near. The toll is too high, the price too steep, The burden we place on those who weep. For the mothers, their cries echo in the night, A clarion call, demanding the right. The right to survive, to thrive, to be, The right to bring life, safe and free. For all the Toris, their names we'll say, And work for a better, safer day. In her honor, let the change begin, In the memory of her life, let's usher it in. A champion sprinter, a mother-to-be, Tori Bowie, your name will forever be free. ©MustafaSantiagoAli #BlackMaternalHealth #Moms #Olympian

As an Indigenous woman and an attorney, I am used to heartbreak. We wake up to fight in the “iron-cold” of the law every day, knowing the scales rarely tip in our favor. But today, in this moment, we celebrate the #SCOTUS decision in Brackeen v. Haaland that upholds #ICWA. 🧵

We sent legal notices to 5 industrial facilities in #LosAngeles County for discharging toxic #PFAS into the groundwater. Groundwater makes up 40-60% of CA's total drinking water supply. As an LA County resident, I'm gonna upgrade from my Brita. Many can't afford to. #waterislife

⚠️ Toxic #ForeverChemicals have no place in sources of drinking water. But we discovered that 5 metal-plating facilities in Los Angeles County discharged #PFAS into groundwater. We're taking legal action. ceh.org/latest/press-r…
