New leadership needed to protect North Carolina’s natural resources
Conservation PAC endorses 25 pro-conservation candidates for November election
RALEIGH: Today, the NC League of Conservation Voters’ Conservation PAC, which works to elect a pro-conservation majority at the state legislature and other key offices, proudly endorses 25 candidates running for office in the upcoming November General Election. Each candidate recognizes the importance of protecting and preserving North Carolina’s environment, which benefits the state’s economy and the quality of life for all North Carolina citizens.
“After another legislative session where elected officials proposed gutting clean air and water safeguards, attempted to dismantle North Carolina’s clean energy sector, and failed to hold polluters accountable for cleaning up toxic coal ash, the need for pro-conservation leaders is crystal clear,” said Dan Crawford, NCLCV’s director of governmental relations. “We support candidates who will prioritize public health and environmental protections during their time in Raleigh – a stark contrast to many current elected officials.”
After defeating three anti-environmental legislators in 2014, Conservation PAC wants to continue this trend in 2016, ensuring that candidates willing to fight for clean water, healthy air, and renewable energy emerge victorious in their November contests.
“We endorse leaders who demonstrate a commitment to the people and natural resources of North Carolina,” Crawford added. “Future generations are counting on us to preserve this special place, and we take that responsibility seriously, as do the candidates who receive our support.”
