WASHINGTON- <\/strong>En respuesta a la presentaci\u00f3n del proyecto de ley de financiaci\u00f3n del Subcomit\u00e9 de Interior, Medio Ambiente y Agencias Relacionadas de la C\u00e1mara de Representantes,<\/a> GreenLatinos emite los siguientes comunicados:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cEsta propuesta de presupuesto antiambiental y pro contaminante presentada por los republicanos de la C\u00e1mara de Representantes socava d\u00e9cadas de protecciones c\u00edvicas y ambientales que benefician a todos los estadounidenses. Recortar fondos para programas que promueven la protecci\u00f3n de la salud p\u00fablica, la gesti\u00f3n ambiental y la equidad social no es un comienzo y demuestra una falta de negociaci\u00f3n de buena fe\u201d, dijo Pedro Hern\u00e1ndez, Defensor de Tierras P\u00fablicas de GreenLatinos<\/strong>. “Some provisions within these Draconian proposals include prohibiting federal funds to teach Latino history at the Smithsonian, reversing protections for endangered species like the grizzly bear, and reneging on funds dedicated to federal diversity, equity, and inclusion programs throughout the Department of Interior. The House proposal defunds federal agencies such as the National Parks Service, Bureau of Land Management, and United States Forest Service; this is nothing other than a complete sabotage of the very agencies meant to ensure a healthy future for all Americans. The GreenLatinos community has issued testimonio escrito y firmar cartas<\/a> al Congreso para avanzar en lo que el interior realmente necesita: m\u00e1s fondos para cumplir con nuestros objetivos de conservaci\u00f3n y equidad\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cBudget cuts to the US Environmental Protection Agency, US Geological Survey, and the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management will impede ongoing efforts to protect water and oceanic resources,” said Val Schull, Director del Programa de Equidad H\u00eddrica y Oc\u00e9anos de GreenLatinos<\/strong>. “Despite investments and efforts to combat environmental injustice and tackle the climate crisis, proposed budget cuts of $4 billion below current levels brings the agency to its lowest amount of funding since 1991. These cuts severely undercount the investments needed to reduce the ongoing water crises. Access to clean and affordable water, building resilience after flooding events or droughts, and a just energy transition are all essential for the wellbeing of millions of people.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis package represents an anti-environment position that will harm our communities, threaten public health and further exacerbate environmental degradation,” said Andrea Marpillero-Colomina, Directora del Programa de Comunidades Sostenibles de GreenLatinos<\/strong>. “The transportation-related riders alone, including proposals to block implementation of DOT\u2019s proposed Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHG) Rule and slash the EPA\u2019s GHG Reduction Fund, will perpetuate the outsize role of transportation as the primary source of U.S. GHG pollution and its harmful impacts. There is no question that embedded in this bill is the clear intent to inflict harms on the most disproportionately impacted communities. We must fight to maintain and increase protections for the welfare of all people.\u201d<\/p>\n

“At a time when the urgency of the climate change demands that our agencies be well-resourced to tackle this humanitarian crisis head on, House Republicans put forth a proposal riddled with attempts to entrench us deeper into this crisis and disempower nuestras comunidades,” said Irene Burga, Directora del Programa de Justicia Clim\u00e1tica y Aire Limpio de GreenLatinos.<\/strong> “Latinos are feeling the impacts of our changing climate today, as we continue experiencing record-breaking heat sweeping across the nation with our communities on the frontlines. Cutting the EPA\u2019s budget to 1991 levels, diminishing critical dollars coming out of the IRA, mandating fossil fuel leasing in the Gulf, and blocking the Good Neighbor Plan are poison pills that undoubtedly threaten the health and safety of communities of color that already disproportionately bear the brunt of the climate crisis alongside harmful air pollution. This package is simply unacceptable and we urge our lawmakers to reject this regressive proposal immediately.”<\/p>\n
