Dark text on an orange background. The header reads "STATEMENT OF SOLIDARITY: Beyond our Scope, but Deeply Present." The body text reads: "While CEJA focuses on environmental justice, numerous ongoing movements align with our overall goal of creating a just future for everyone. Vulnerable communities are under attack within California and throughout the world. CEJA unequivocally supports an embargo of weapons and ammunition to Israel and calls for a permanent ceasefire in Gaza. We cannot abide genocide anywhere in our world to have an equitable and just future. CEJA stands in full solidarity with immigrant communities and calls for the end of all ICE raids and for the immediate release of all detainees. Environmental justice means fighting for our communities’ right to exist — free from fossil fuel pollution and militarized policing. To all of the other movements on the frontlines of protecting fundamental human rights — our trans and queer siblings, accessibility advocates, defenders of the free press, and many more — we see you. We stand with you in this fight for a just future for all." Beneath it, a white banner reads: CEJA and CEJA Action’s 2025 Environmental Justice Scorecard: bit.ly/2025EJscorecard

What’s happened to hold Chevron accountable?"

A video fading between two maps of Oakland, California. One map shows the original redlining allocations of its neighborhoods (dsl.richmond.edu), and the other shows present-day pollution levels (CalEnviroScreen 4.0). The overlays demonstrate that the previously redlined neighborhoods correspond with the areas of worst air pollution today.
A full-page advertisement shows an image of the wildfires in LA and text overlaid that reads: "Climate change is costing us. Polluters need to pay their fair share for creating this crisis. We can't afford anything less. Legislators and Governor: Deliver corporate polluter and utility accountability this year."
