(Bronx NY) On Thursday, Congressman Serrano joined other members of Congress, community activists, and advocates to call for action on climate change and launch Takesides.org, a new coalition of Latino, Black, and other working class communities and community organizations.

“Environmental pollution and degradation have consistently been proven to have the worst impact on minority communities. It’s time to join efforts and take action to make sure Latinos and other minority groups’ needs and concerns are taken into consideration as we address climate change. As a longtime advocate of environmental justice and the greening of urban areas, I’m proud to join Takesides.org to launch this important campaign,” said Congressman José E. Serrano.
