🌞From the Texas Gulf Coast to the fracking fields of Colorado, communities are rising together to demand a future rooted in public health, environmental justice, and accountability.
Last month in Houston, our Texas partners coalition came together to confront CERAWeek, one of the largest gatherings of oil and gas executives and political insiders in the world. While corporate leaders met behind closed doors to discuss profits and expansion, organizers, workers, students, Indigenous leaders, and frontline residents gathered outside to tell the truth about what these industries are doing to our air, water, climate, and communities.
From refinery pollution along the Gulf Coast, to methane leaks in North Texas, to the impacts of fracking across Colorado and the Southwest, our struggles are deeply connected. Communities across the country are experiencing the same pattern: corporate profit placed over people’s health and safety.
We were honored to have Ean Thomas Tafoya, our Vice Chair of State Programs, join us in Texas to connect directly with our members, coalition partners, and frontline advocates. His visit reminded us that this work extends far beyond one city or one state. GreenLatinos continues building power through state programs and partnerships across the country, organizing communities, developing leaders, and pushing for bold environmental policies that center working families and historically underserved communities.
This movement belongs to all of us. Whether you’re organizing in Texas, Colorado, California, Arizona, New Mexico, Illinois, or beyond, there is a place for you in this fight.
Join our movement. Support frontline organizing. Help us build a better future for all of us!
