Counting down to Brenda Mallory’s confirmation hearing in @EPWCmte at 10! Broad and strong support for her confirmation to be Chair of @WHCEQ, including from these Republican leaders from the Admins of President George HW Bush and President George W Bush. https://t.co/RXU5gl9bt0

The expansion of the San Gabriel Mountains and Berryessa Snow Mountain National Monuments today is at the heart of @POTUS’s historic conservation agenda and his commitment to protecting our nation’s lands and waters for future generations.

America’s natural wonders and public lands are our nation’s heart and soul.

Here's the latest on my Administration's work to fight like hell to protect them:

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

Since I took office, my Administration has protected 41 million acres of America's natural wonders.

No President and no Administration has done more to protect and deliver clean water. Full stop.

[Matt Lee-Ashley @MLeeAshley]

@BrendaMallory46: “Everyone should be able to turn on the tap and know that the glass of water they fill is safe to drink and free of pollutants."

Another big step yesterday toward building a system of national parks and historic sites that tells the full story of America, and that honors and recognizes the contributions of women to our country. Thank you @POTUS @SecDebHaaland @NatlParkService! #WomensHistoryMonth

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

Today I signed an Executive Order to increase representation of women’s history in our national parks and historic sites.

Women’s history is American history. It’s time we better recognized women’s critical role in shaping our nation’s story in more places across our country.

[ACORE @ACORE]

Thank you to our second #ACOREPolicyForum keynote speaker, @WHCEQ Chair @BrendaMallory46.

"For far too long, communities across the country have faced environmental injustice," she said and stressed the importance of putting "equity and environmental justice front and center."

[Matt Lee-Ashley @MLeeAshley]

@BrendaMallory46: "At a time when others are editing the history of our country, @POTUS and @VP are lifting up our full past – including truths about the challenges Black Americans face that have been ignored and obscured for far too long" https://t.co/4JTGwqkU2L

I couldn’t be prouder to introduce Brenda Mallory at her nomination hearing. Brenda's CT roots, tough work ethic, commitment to coalition building, & belief in the importance of environmental justice make her the perfect person to Chair the Council on Environmental Quality.

[Senate EPW Democrats @EPWCmte]

WATCH: If confirmed to chair @WHCEQ, @Brenda_Mallory pledges to listen to the voices of all communities, including those historically left out, as we tackle the environmental and public health crises facing our country. Equity and justice need to underpin our policy decisions.

[Matt Lee-Ashley @MLeeAshley]

“Brenda Mallory is the best person for this job.” “Bipartisan and common sense” Thank you @SenBlumenthal for the powerful introduction and sharing Brenda’s family story and values. #CEQ

Kudos to @NRDems @RepDianaDeGette @RepRaulGrijalva et al in the House for taking early action to protect the Grand Canyon, 1.5 M acres of wilderness, and 1,000 miles of wild and scenic rivers. Off to a fast start on conservation in 2021.
