The
League of Women Voters has launched a major, nationwide campaign in
defense of the EPA’s work to give Americans
clean air. The People Not
Polluters campaign asks Americans
and their elected officials to join the Clean Air Promise:
I promise to protect America’s children and families from dangerous air pollution. Because toxics and pollutants such as mercury, smog, carbon, and soot, cause thousands of hospital visits, asthma attacks, and even deaths, I will support clean air policies and other protections that scientists and public health experts have recommended to the EPA to safeguard our air quality.
Watch the campaign spot:
LWV is mobilizing its members to tell personal stories of the cost of asthma for children and families, including outreach to vulnerable populations like seniors, Latinos, and African Americans.
