    (c) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
            (1) Communities of color, low-income communities, Tribal 
        and indigenous communities, fossil fuel-dependent communities, 
        and other vulnerable populations, such as persons with 
        disabilities, children, and the elderly, are disproportionately 
        burdened by environmental hazards that include exposure to 
        polluted air, waterways, and landscapes.
            (2) Environmental justice disparities are also exhibited 
        through a lack of equitable access to green spaces, public 
        recreation opportunities, and information and data on potential 
        exposure to environmental hazards.
            (3) Communities experiencing environmental injustice have 
        been subjected to systemic racial, social, and economic 
        injustices and face a disproportionate burden of adverse human 
        health or environmental effects, a higher risk of intentional, 
        unconscious, and structural discrimination, and 
        disproportionate energy burdens.
            (4) Environmental justice communities have been made more 
        vulnerable to the effects of climate change due to a 
        combination of factors, particularly the legacy of segregation 
        and historically racist zoning codes, and often have the least 
        resources to respond, making it a necessity for environmental 
        justice communities to be meaningfully engaged as partners and 
        stakeholders in government decision making as our nation builds 
        its climate resilience.
            (5) Potential environmental and climate threats to 
        environmental justice communities merit a higher level of 
        engagement, review, and consent to ensure that communities are 
        not forced to bear disproportionate environmental and health 
        impacts.
            (6) The burden of proof that a proposed action will not 
        harm communities, including through cumulative exposure 
        effects, should fall on polluting industries and on the Federal 
        Government in its regulatory role, not the communities 
        themselves.
            (7) Executive Order 12898 (59 Fed. Reg. 32, relating to 
        Federal Actions To Address Environmental Justice in Minority 
        Populations and Low-Income Populations) directs Federal 
        agencies to address disproportionately high and adverse human 
        health or environmental effects of its programs, but Federal 
        agencies have been inconsistent in updating their strategic 
        plans for environmental justice and reporting on their progress 
        in enacting these plans.
            (8) Government action to correct environmental injustices 
        is a moral imperative. Federal policy can and should improve 
        public health and improve the overall well-being of all 
        communities.
            (9) All people have the right to breathe clean air, drink 
        clean water, live free of dangerous levels of toxic pollution, 
        and share the benefits of a prosperous and vibrant pollution-
        free economy.
            (10) A fair and just transition to a pollution-free economy 
        is necessary to ensure that workers and communities in 
        deindustrialized areas have access to the resources and 
        benefits of a sustainable future. This transition must also 
        address the economic disparities experienced by residents 
        living in areas contaminated by pollution or environmental 
        degradation, including access to jobs, and members of those 
        communities must be fully and meaningfully involved in 
        transition planning processes.
            (11) It is the responsibility of the Federal Government to 
        seek to achieve environmental justice, health equity, and 
        climate justice for all communities.

SEC. 2. STATEMENT OF POLICY.

    It is the policy of Congress that each Federal agency should--
            (1) seek to achieve environmental justice as part of its 
        mission by identifying and addressing, as appropriate, 
        disproportionately adverse human health or environmental 
        effects of its programs, policies, practices, and activities on 
        communities of color, low-income communities, and Tribal and 
        indigenous communities in each State and territory of the 
        United States;
            (2) promote meaningful involvement by communities and due 
        process in the development, implementation, and enforcement of 
        environmental laws;
            (3) provide direct guidance and technical assistance to 
        communities experiencing environmental injustice focused on 
        increasing shared understanding of the science, laws, 
        regulations, and policy related to Federal agency action on 
        environmental justice issues;
            (4) cooperate with State governments, Tribal Governments, 
        and local governments to address pollution and public health 
        burdens in communities experiencing environmental injustice, 
        and build healthy, sustainable, and resilient communities; and
            (5) recognize the right of all people to clean air, safe 
        and affordable drinking water, protection from climate hazards, 
        and to the sustainable preservation of the ecological integrity 
        and aesthetic, scientific, cultural, and historical values of 
        the natural environment.

potential impacts of the proposed action.
    (c) Contents.--The community impact report described in subsection 
(b) shall--
            (1) assess the degree to which a proposed Federal action 
        affecting an environmental justice community will cause

        to adverse health outcomes;
            (2) assess relevant public health data and industry data 
        concerning the potential for multiple or cumulative exposure to

        environmental justice community and historical patterns of 
        exposure to environmental hazards and agencies shall assess 
        these multiple, or cumulative effects, even if certain effects
