Air Alliance Houston educates and advocates with policymakers at all levels of government to achieve clean air policies. We defend the Clean Air Act and work to advance protective statewide legislation during the Texas State Legislative Sessions.
We also monitor and respond to federal and state rules, standards, ordinances, and other administrative decisions that impact air quality in Houston and across the state. In some cases, we even serve as litigants in motions to compel the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) or state regulators to act on clean air provisions.
