(a)The purpose of this Act is to further the interest of the State of Illinois in Justice40, an initiative to deliver at least 40% of the overall benefits from federal investments in climate and clean energy to disadvantaged communities.
(b)The General Assembly finds that disadvantaged communities bear a disproportionate burden from the effects of climate change. The State of Illinois has a responsibility to protect these communities and to enable the use of these resources and must adequately prepare to make robust policy suggestions in consultation with residents from disadvantaged communities, advocates, and industries.
