Each year for the past 40 years, National Crime Victims’ Rights Week has brought people across America together in common cause to confront and remove barriers to justice for victims of federal crime. Throughout my own career—as a federal prosecutor, as a judge, and now as the Attorney General—I have seen first-hand the importance of supporting crime victims, including victims of environmental crime. Although environmental crimes can happen anywhere, communities of color, low-income communities, and tribal communities often bear the brunt of the harm caused by environmental crime, pollution, and other environmental hazards. ***Let me say in closing: it is fitting that this year we will celebrate Earth Day during National Crime Victims’ Rights Week. Environmental justice requires that victims of environmental crime in communities disproportionately burdened by environmental harm are empowered to participate fully and equally in our justice system.

We’ve been observing National Crime Victims’ Rights week for 40 years and Earth Day for over 50. We listened and learned from victims, from victims’ rights professionals, and from those working on environmental crimes investigations and prosecutions. The theme of this year’s National Crime Victims’ Rights Week is “Support Victims. While there is now a national federal program to assist environmental crime victims, it is only part of the solution. I want to thank them for their work in setting up the Environmental Crime Victims’ Program, and for organizing today’s event.
