Just One Good Thing: The Biden-Harris Justice40 Plan
In this episode, we discuss the Justice40 initiative by the Biden-Harris administration, which aims to deliver 40% of federal investments in climate and clean energy to disadvantaged communities.
We illustrate the importance of strategic investments in areas like clean air, water, energy, job training, affordable housing, and critical infrastructure, using Chicago's South Side as an example.
Contrasting these efforts with the previous administration’s rollbacks on environmental protections, the episode underscores the necessity of voting in the upcoming election to ensure continued progress.
Additionally, it addresses common criticisms by emphasizing that the initiative is about fairness and opportunity, not handouts.
