Sharing this PDF from Guardians of Flushing Bay:

"Overview: On Monday, March 15th the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) released the next-to-final step of its environmental review process. The FAA has declined to meaningfully evaluate all but one politically expedient airport transportation alternative—the one that cuts between an environmental justice community and its waterfront park. This is irresponsible transit planning with no eye toward environmental justice, transit equity or potential displacement.

Use the guide below to join Guardians of Flushing Bay in our call on the Federal Aviation Administration and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg for an environmental review redo!"
