Massachusetts bill H935 aims to limit the siting or expansion of toxics release inventory facilities in environmental justice communities.

Massachusetts bill H935 seeks to address environmental inequality by limiting the siting or expansion of toxics release inventory facilities in low-income or minority neighborhoods. The bill defines "environmental justice population" and mandates the Secretary of the Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs to establish a cap on TRI Facilities in these areas. It also requires the Secretary to prioritize reducing residents' exposure to toxins and ensuring access to a clean environment.
