Important! It is long past the time for #Arizona utilities to take #CorporateResponsibility & fund a Just & Equitable Transition. The ACC holds the environmental justice +economic development key. #EmpoweredTransition

Currently tuned in to the @CorpCommAZ contingency meeting. Community #solar up now & coal-impacted communities (Just & Equitable Transition) up after. The incoming Commissioners because of election will be a nightmare, FYI. https://t.co/BIsVBwHRDo #EmpoweredTransition
Please take a moment to sign our petition to urge the Arizona Corporation Commission to support a Just and Equitable Transition for our #Arizona coal-impacted communities. 50 years of injustice - time to give back. #EmpoweredTransition https://t.co/OfOftdH3xS
#Navajo residents seek 'just and equitable' help after closure of power plant, coal mine: The recent hearings gave @CorpCommAZ a chance to hear from the region's communities about why the commission should support a $100 million Just Transition agreement: https://t.co/Mua4z0EG3P
"The just transition movement gives us a chance to break with the extractive, exploitative practices of the past and build a resilient, equitable future."

Vern recounts a story where she asked @peabodyenergy directly whether or not they would fix roads impacted by their operations. Their answer? "We are only here to mine coal, we are not here for community services." @CorpCommAZ, we need a just and equitable transition NOW!

Vern, the next speaker, is now discussing the major public health problems created by living near #KayenaMine. Cancer. Asthma. Pulmonary diseases. Most families have suffered greatly from coal mining.
