“In a complaint filed this week, a group of New York City teachers and other school staffers charged that their workplaces are unsafe and that more rigorous testing of campus ventilation systems is necessary during the coronavirus pandemic.
Representing the educators are the Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility, a nonprofit organization known as PEER, which represents whistleblowers who are public employees, and the Environmental Justice Initiative, a nonprofit led by attorney Joel Kupferman. Both organizations previously worked on air quality issues after the 9/11 terrorist attacks.”
