NYLCV Endorses 91 Candidates Across New York State for Election

New York, N.Y. – The New York League of Conservation Voters (NYLCV) announced its first round of endorsements for the 2022 election cycle, supporting 91 candidates for elected office across New York State. Voters care more and more about the environment and fighting climate change. From protecting clean water, clean air and open space, to reducing waste to advocating for clean energy and clean transportation, it is critical that New York voters know which candidates are making the environment a priority. 

Julie Tighe, President of the New York League of Conservation Voters, said, “We are proud to endorse 91 candidates across the state who have demonstrated that they are champions for the environment, not just in their words but in their actions. New Yorkers overwhelmingly support forward-looking environmental action, and this slate of candidates represent dynamic leaders on both sides of the aisle who are helping our state set the bar for clean energy, clean water, clean transportation, conservation, and much more.”

The League of Conservation Voters (LCV) Action Fund, which works to elect pro-environment candidates, also endorses Reps. Hakeem Jeffries (NY-08), Carolyn Maloney (NY-12), Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY-14), Antonio Delgado (NY-19), and Paul Tonko (NY-20).

The New York League of Conservation Voters is the only non-partisan, statewide environmental organization in New York that takes a pragmatic approach to fight for clean water, healthy air, renewable energy, and open space. For more information, visit www.nylcv.org.
