The DHS "Environmental Justice" plan is an absurd gaslighting attempt of the American people.
DHS continues their woke agenda by also creating the DHS Environmental Justice Strategy, which seeks to reorient the department's work in light of "environmental justice" principles and is developed by the DHS Climate Change Action Group. Much like my efforts to defund their Climate Literacy Strategy, I offered an amendment to block the allocation of money to this program in order to make sure that funds designated for securing our nation go to projects that actually protect Americans from the real threats we face. I am thankful that this amendment was incorporated into the FY24 DHS appropriations bill as we seek to fix a broken department that continues to neglect is primary duty: protecting and securing our nation.
