On November 21, 2024, the Commissioners of the Port of Oakland certified the flawed Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) for the proposed addition of 16 new gates to expand the Oakland airport. THANK YOU to all those who attended the Port Commissioner's vote and gave heartfelt testimony, ceded time to other speakers, and participated in the rally. There was a huge community turnout and almost 60 community members, including youth, doctors, epidemiologists, airport workers, East Oakland mothers of children with asthma who spoke passionately about the reasons that the Commissioners should have rejected the Final Environmental Report (FEIR.)
