We’re celebrating these investments in electric school buses across the country, including at John Lewis Elementary School in Washington, DC! Thank you U.S. EPA for the quick action to help communities nationwide access zero-emission school buses

.U.S. EPA has proposed its plan to #cutmethane from the oil & gas industry. Stronger standards on oil & gas will lead to immediate health benefits and long-term climate benefits. Good to see this step and we're ready to help strengthen and move it towards final implementation.

Today, we launch our #StateOfTheAir report, which grades Americans' exposure to unhealthy levels of ozone and particle pollution. Despite some improvements, too many people still live in areas with unhealthy air quality. Learn more and take action: Lung.org/SOTA.

I just took action in support of cleaner, healthier air with the American Lung Association. Check out their new #StateOfTheAir report to find out about the quality of the air in your community and take action: lung.org/research/sota

Ozone #airpollution affects over 100 million Americans, making breathing difficult for many. But there's good news in our #StateOfTheAir report: the number of people living in counties with failing grades for ozone has decreased by over 19 million. Lung.org/SOTA

Check it out! #StateOfTheAir

People of color are 3.7 times more likely than white people to live in counties with all failing grades for ozone and particle pollution, according the American Lung Association’s new #StateOfTheAir report. Lung.org/SOTA

Air pollution disproportionately impacts people of color, who are 3.7 times more likely to live in areas with the worst air quality. Let's take action to address this inequity. Read the #StateOfTheAir report at Lung.org/SOTA. #CleanAirForAll

Next week is #LungCancerActionWeek but I couldn’t wait, so I rocked my turquoise while testifying to EPA, urging them to clean up truck pollution that is worsening the climate crisis and threatening the health of those living with lung cancer #TurquoiseTakeover

#NYC is looking beautiful in turquoise tonight for #LungCancerActionWeek to raise awareness and inspire action to defeat the disease!

Another day another EPA hearing during #LungCancerActionWeek. This time I’m asking for strong standards for hazardous air pollutants from power plants, including many known carcinogens. #TurquoiseTakeover

Another one! Today I’m asking EPA to strengthen limits on pollution from passenger cars. #TurquoiseTakeover #LungCancerActionWeek

Today, our lung health patient advisors take on Capitol Hill - urging Congress to make critical changes in Medicare oxygen, support the Family Asthma Act & boost CDC & NIH funding. Let's shape a healthier future. Sponsored by Sanofi GSK Pfizer Inc. AstraZeneca Merck

The US must drastically reduce air & climate pollution. Building upon incentives included the #InflationReductionAct to help transition to cleaner electricity & vehicles will improve health. Finalizing strong air pollution limits will hold polluters accountable #LancetClimate2023

We call on U.S. EPA to swiftly finalize a suite of air pollution regulations that have the potential to improve health outcomes and save lives. Learn more on what needs to happen and how you can call for the strongest possible rules: on.lung.org/3SD1nGL

“ the tobacco industry has increased pressure on the The White House to delay or stop the advancement of these rules. The tobacco industry will do anything to protect their profits at the expense of public health,” said Harold Wimmer CEO American Lung Association cnn.com/2023/12/06/hea…

Don't believe industry's lies. We don't need to choose between stronger standards & a strong economy. Oh and also - particle pollution kills. Full stop.

Cars & trucks are polluting our communities. But new standards from EPA can deliver cleaner air for all. Tell Congress to defend clean air progress! on.lung.org/4dMO4uD

For the next 12 days, we’re spotlighting why #cleanair matters and what’s at stake from repealing the Endangerment Finding. From climate threats to health protections, each day highlights a different truth about the importance of the Endangerment Finding and its safeguards.

Hey MTA Maryland - the overpass stairs at Halethorpe are shoveled, but the stairs to get to the stairs northbound are not, nor the landing at the southbound side.
