USDOT to Host Public Meetings on the Justice40 Initiative<\/h2>\n

Published on: <\/span><\/strong>November 1, 2021<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

To advance the Biden-Harris Administration\u2019s climate goals, including the Justice40 Initiative<\/a>, the U.S. Department of Transportation will host\u00a0two virtual public meetings<\/a>\u00a0in November. Justice 40, detailed in President Biden\u2019s Tackling the Climate Crisis at Home and Abroad\u00a0Executive Order<\/a>, calls on federal agencies, such as FTA, to deliver 40 percent of the overall benefits of relevant federal investments to disadvantaged communities.<\/span><\/p>\n

During these interactive meetings, senior USDOT leaders will explain the Justice40 Initiative and solicit feedback from participants. Both sessions will be open to the public, but content will differ based on the expected prior knowledge of participants. Members of impacted communities are encouraged to participate, as are potential USDOT funding recipients such as state, regional, and local government agencies, tribal nations, academic institutions, community-based, nonprofit, and private-sector organizations.<\/span><\/p>\n
