Justice40

Last updated

Justice40 was a social equity and environmental justice initiative by the Biden administration in the United States. [1] It sought to identify disadvantaged communities and prioritize federal investments to benefit these communities. The specific categories considered include health issues, legacy pollution hazards, climate change impacts, energy costs, transportation impacts, water/wastewater exposures, workforce/income challenges, and housing challenges. [2] [3] [4]

Justice40 efforts were ended by the Trump administration's Executive Order 14148. [5]
