#DYK that childhood asthma is a leading cause of chronic disease-related school absenteeism in the U.S.? Riding diesel school buses can trigger asthma attacks. Let's keep our kids healthy and in class with #ElectricSchoolBuses! #CleanRide4Kids #Moms4CleanBuses

Detroit has been named the third worst city to live in with asthma, a new report says.

The Motor City's ranking got worse this year, moving from fifth-worst last year.

@BridgeDet313 reporter @j_e_n_a_b has the details.

Detroit's Moroun family is taking over a 99% Black neighborhood in the city. The family owns 160 of 215 parcels, and wants the rest.

FOIA reveals a Moroun-owned company illegally constructed a concrete plant just across from residents in 2022.

@morningmika It's not Anti-Trump fatigue, Dems did not sign up for war mongering. We say Trumpians are a cult but we are not a monolithic party, not blinded by a party. It's a VALUES conflict deflating/de-energizing. I'm a super volunteer-Hearing this on the ground. We see #Gaza

#SDEV is working to take older, heavier polluting trucks off of the road. Everyone deserves to breathe clean air and deserves a quiet neighborhood without diesel trucks driving through them! We would love your support for Cleaner Air in #Detroit! #sdev313

This @DNC is my party? This is who I support? This is who I send donations to? #Freespeech? #ProgressiveValues? I don't think so #NotONEpenny #Rethinking2024

[IfNotNow🔥✡️ @IfNotNowOrg]

Now cops are violently attacking hundreds of people calling for a ceasefire outside of DNC Headquarters, as we chant "Let Gaza Live!"

We want to be crystal clear to the Democratic Party: you cannot continue to ignore those you claim to represent.

The people will not allow it.

[Raquel Garcia @RaquelGarciaAnd]

@DNC This is my party? This is who I support? This is who I send donations to? #Rethinking2024

[#StopCopCity @ChuckModi1]

“We are outside of DNC demanding they have a ceasefire for the ppl of Gaza & this is how they treat us?”

Outside DNC 1.5 hours ago shortly after police attacked protesters

@medeabenjamin Stay strong, my friend. ❤️❤️❤️

[Raquel Garcia @RaquelGarciaAnd]

For too long, Detroiters breathed toxic air as politicians made empty promises to address our concerns. But in the year since @POTUS signed the #InflationReducitonAct , making historic progress towards reducing emissions & ensuring more Americans can breathe clean air. #313SDEV

[Governor Gretchen Whitmer @GovWhitmer]

One year ago today, @POTUS signed the Inflation Reduction Act, which had a direct impact on Michiganders.

Because of the IRA and the Executive Orders I signed to take full advantage of it, we've been able to lower costs and put more money back into people's pockets.
