American Lung Association Responds to President Obama’s State of the Union Address

Statement of the American Lung Association President and CEO Charles D. Connor

Washington (January 26, 2011)—

This evening President Obama delivered his State of the Union Address to Congress and the nation. The president addressed a broad range of issues that affect the American public, and we commend the President for his strong commitment to protecting public health and clean air.

Part of a comprehensive approach to health includes air that is safe and healthy to breathe. We are heartened by the president’s support for the Clean Air Act – a law that exemplifies his vision for bipartisan collaboration to protect public health and create jobs. We look for his continued leadership to work with Congress to defend the Clean Air Act against attack and to make sure the Environmental Protection Agency enforces the law to protect the public health.
