Groundtruth: New Jersey’s Environmental Justice Law

In the first few weeks of the Biden-Harris Administration, we’ve seen an unprecedented environmental justice (EJ) campaign platform develop into far-reaching executive actions. But even before the Biden-Harris campaign brought EJ to the federal spotlight, states were starting to implement ambitious, history-making EJ-focused legislation, a trend that appears to be continuing into 2021.  In this episode, Julius M. Redd, an attorney at Beveridge & Diamond, speaks with New Jersey Senator Troy Singleton and New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection Acting Commissioner Shawn LaTourette, about New Jersey’s landmark 2020 environmental justice law. This episode is the first of a series, Groundtruth, created in partnership with Beveridge & Diamond.  ★ Support this podcast ★
