House Republicans push to torpedo Biden's 'environmental justice' executive order
Fox News
Rep. August Pfluger, R-Texas, is spearheading a House GOP effort to rescind President Biden's executive order directing federal agencies to incorporate "environmental justice" into their missions.
"Instead of focusing on the many crises facing our nation, President Biden has delivered a mandate that every federal agency must focus on ‘environmental justice.’ This president is completely out of touch with the American people and the issues they are facing in their daily lives due to the policy failures of his administration," Pfluger told Fox News Digital.

Biden's executive order, titled "Revitalizing Our Nation's Commitment to Environmental Justice for All," directed federal agencies to "address gaps in science and data to better understand and prevent the cumulative impacts of pollution on people’s health," according to the White House. It also created a new Office of Environmental Justice to coordinate environmental justice efforts through the administration.
