(State of Wisconsin) … Our charge is to combat the crisis at hand, to do so in a way that weds science and data with the experiences of citizens in the state, to learn how different communities and industries have been impacted, and to learn from those that are already leading the way in combatting this crisis. And that’s exactly what this task force did. We focused our work on the people of Wisconsin. We united a diverse coalition—representing different perspectives, communities, and industries—with a shared vision to make Wisconsin a cleaner, safer, and more equitable state. We also focused on listening to the voices that have gone unheard by past leaders of this state and nation—the voices of people of color and low-income communities, whose air and water are more likely to be polluted but whose communities are far less likely to be included in policymaking. These voices must be part of the conversation and drive solutions—anything less will continue the long pattern of environmental racism we have witnessed in this country.
