Marc A. Veasey has accepted documented donations from sectors with material interests in "Fossil fuel infrastructure expansion and climate displacement of TX-33 low-income communities" but has no public statement, vote, or hearing record on the topic. Expected position: TX-33 includes low-income communities in southwest Fort Worth and western Dallas that are disproportionately exposed to air quality impacts from the Barnett Shale formation and refinery operations in the district. Veasey has described himself as a clean energy advocate and has sponsored clean energy legislation. The documented public health impacts on his own constituents from fossil fuel infrastructure in the district create an expected position on local air quality enforcement and refinery accountability that has not been publicly articulated. Evidence of activity on adjacent topics: Veasey has been publicly active on clean energy jobs and the energy transition, issuing statements on the Inflation Reduction Act's clean energy provisions and introducing clean energy legislation. No documented public statements specifically address the air quality impact of fossil fuel operations on low-income communities within his own district despite his stated clean energy advocacy.
