“All of our residents regardless of race, color, ethnicity, religion deserve to live in communities free from the effects of pollution and are entitled to participate in decision-making that affects their environment, their communities, their homes and their health. Good environmental policy is something that must lift all communities. The Executive Order I am signing (E.O. 23) will ensure state agencies are considering the cumulative impacts of their actions in overburdened communities on an ongoing basis.”

Governor Phil Murphy
