    • Georgia should adopt legislative supporting E-Transport already being done in other states.

    • Time to speak out against 50 years of pollution [file attached] TO PROTECT OUR HEALTH & ENVIRONMENT, SCIENCE MUST BE RESTORED IN AMERICA'S PUBLIC POLICY.

      Ignoring facts has dangerous consequences. The coronavirus outbreak must be controlled with science, just as climate-change impacts must be curbed with fact-based policies.

      Political manipulation cannot protect us. Suppressing factual information threatens our health, quality of life, and future.

      The politicization of information about COVID-19 and other threats will reduce trust and undermine the effectiveness of both public health advisories and environmental policies.

      Action Recommended: Urge senators and representatives in Congress to ensure that Americans at risk are properly protected by restoring science in all aspects of government.
