We explore the role of ram press ure in the environmental regulation of gas content and quenching of low-ma ss galaxies in zoom-in hydrodynamic simulations of Milky Way (MW) mass hos ts. The quiescent fraction of low-mass galaxies increases as their stellar mass decreases and as their distance to a MW-mass host decreases\, simila r to the Local Group. In addition\, the location of a satellite at quenchi ng (in a MW halo\, in a low-mass group\, or in isolation) and the timing o f quenching with respect to different events like infall or pericenter pas sage depend on the mass of the satellite galaxy. In particular\, we find t hat MW satellites can be efficiently quenched before infall into a MW halo by pre-processing in low-mass groups\, where they experience ram pressure comparable to that in a MW halo. Interestingly\, the density of halo gas near paired Local Group-like hosts is enhanced at small angles/latitudes o ff the host galaxy disk versus directly above or below the disk. Prelimina ry results indicate that both observed and simulated satellites within the se low-latitude regions at z=0 may be preferentially quenched\, similar to recently reported anisotropic quenching in massive galaxy clusters at low redshift. In addition\, we briefly discuss morphological changes to low-m ass galaxies induced by the Local Group environment\, such as the formatio n of ultra diffuse galaxies via tidal shocks.\n\nhttps://meetings.aip.de/e vent/20/contributions/262/ LOCATION:Haus H\, Telegrafenberg URL:https://meetings.aip.de/event/20/contributions/262/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
