How this connects
The DEEP Act is a bill proposed in the U.S. Senate to advance environmental protection. In December 2023, the Senate referred it to the Committee on Environment and Public Works for review. This is a chance for community members to track and engage with federal environmental policy. When we show up together, our community becomes more connected, more resilient, and more powerful.
