Rural Alabama counties lost a $14 million grant to upgrade sanitation systems so decrepit that some residents have contracted hookworm. A historically Black Virginia neighborhood won't receive a $20 million grant to stop severe flooding. In Louisiana, multiple federal efforts have been halted: a Justice Department lawsuit against a corporation accused of worsening cancer risks in a predominantly Black neighborhood; the designation of one area as a national historic landmark to limit industrialization; and grants from the Environmental Protection Agency to support monitoring air quality in Cancer Alley, an 80-mile stretch of mostly Black towns and villages hit hard by industrial pollution. Do you approve of President Trump's actions?
