Senators in Vermont have proposed an amendment to the state constitution that would guarantee a right to a clean environment.

The bill was sponsored by 15 senators and, if passed by the House, would go into effect in November 2022. Additionally, the amendment would have to go through a public vote that would require a majority to pass.

This amendment comes in the wake of President Donald Trump’s continuous rollbacks on federal environmental protections. A report from New York University has highlighted that the moves by the Trump administration have severely limited environmental protection:

If the administration is successful, our nation’s ability to fight climate change will be set back for years.

Vermont has passed several other proposed amendments to its constitution in the last year, one removing references of slavery and preventing slavery and indentured servitude of any kind, and one ensuring a right to reproductive liberty.
