Fights Ahead in Congress for Environmental Justice Webinar

As environmental justice communities face continued rollbacks and political attacks, our coalition is still here, still united, and still resisting.
Join the Platform for a Just Climate for a timely webinar highlighting members of Congress who have actively defended environmental justice priorities in 2025, and exploring what environmental justice fights and opportunities lie ahead in 2026. Together, we’ll reclaim the narrative on environmental justice, uplift EJ champions, and prepare for coordinated action during the week of January 19–21, marking one year of the Trump Administration and our communities persevering.
This session will feature national EJ leaders and movement voices, and will equip participants with advocacy tools and clear next steps to hold elected officials accountable.
Speakers include:
- Ansha Zaman, Center for Earth, Energy, and Democracy
- Charles Espedido, Center for Earth, Energy, and Democracy
- Cathleen Kelly, Center for American Progress
- Dalal Aboulhosn, Center for Earth, Energy, and Democracy
- Manuel Salgado, WE ACT for Environmental Justice
- Jackie Cohen, Waxman Strategies
This event will be on Thursday, January 15 at 2 pm.
