Last year, Jenny Jones' Clean Air (Human Rights) Bill also called Ella's Law, after Ella Roberta Adoo Kissi-Debrah, the first child to have air pollution listed as cause of death, passed its third reading in the House of Lords and won strong cross party support.

Now, the Bill has moved to the House of Commons and Greens are urging all MPs to support Ella's Law.

Please download and share this graphic on social media to help put pressure on Labour peers and others to vote down the "pre-crime" amendments and defend our democratic right to protest.
