Why this petition matters

Started by Maria Reyes

For over 40 years the single piston airplanes flying in and out of Reid Hillview Airport have contaminated the air our minority communities breathe 24/7.

Children exposed to this toxic air have neurological problems, learning problems, underperforming in schools and many other learning difficulties.

Adults suffer from hight blood levels, hearing loss, memory loss and early set of dementia.

Pregnant mothers have infants who are born with brain damage or in some cases are stillborn.

These types of airports are located in minority communities.

Flying an airplane is a privilege - not a necessity.

The Cassell Community needs to be heard.  We cannot continue staying silent as our children continue to be damaged.

Cassell Community is not the only community fighting this injustice.  Please join us in raising our voices in asking all leaders to stop this injustice.
