Women, people of color hold majority on Governor Cooper’s new environmental justice council, NC Newsline/The Pulse, Dec. 18 2023
IOF congratulates our own Justin Flores on being appointed to this new council!
“Gov. Roy Cooper announced his 11 appointees to the new N.C. Environmental Justice Advisory Council today; seven of them are women and 10 are non-white.
The governor created the new 22-member EJ Advisory Council in October, as part of Executive Order 292, “Advancing Environmental Justice for North Carolina.” Housed within the governor’s office, the new group expands on the Environmental Justice & Equity Advisory Board that was under the N.C. Department of Environmental Quality.”
