What is the solar cliff and why does it matter? Michelle Knox of WindSolarUSA walks through how the success of #FEJA has changed the clean energy economy in Illinois, and why we need to pass new legislation to keep up the job growth that we've seen over the past few years! #CEJA

"Runoff doesn’t just affect faraway animal habitats. It can have dramatic effects in So. IL too. It can degrade drinking water quality, hinder rec. and lower property values. Runoff and nutrient loss make our farms less profitable & threaten public health"

🚨Today, @LVEJO is taking over the ICJC social media accounts! Since 1994, we’ve organized members of the Little Village community to advocate for environmental justice. We’re a proud member of the ICJC, & today we’re taking over their social media to share some devastating news.
