The New York League of Conservation Voters (NYLCV) Gives Green is proud to announce its final round of endorsements for the 2024 election cycle. NYLCV Gives Green is backing 14 additional candidates who have demonstrated a strong commitment to addressing climate change and advancing forward-thinking environmental policies. These candidates are running for seats in the U.S. House of Representatives, the New York State Senate, and the New York State Assembly.
“As we near the end of another summer of record-breaking heat and devastating floods, it’s more clear than ever that voters are focused on the urgent need for climate action,” said NYLCV President Julie Tighe. “We are excited to endorse this slate of impressive environmental champions, all of whom are committed to fighting for clean energy, green jobs, and a healthier future. With so much on the line this November, we urge voters to turn out and support our NYLCV-endorsed candidates up and down the ballot.”
