WASHINGTON, DC – “Rep. Menendez is fighting to address climate impacts and build more sustainable infrastructure to protect communities across New Jersey and the country.”
The League of Conservation Voters (LCV) Action Fund, which works to elect pro-environment candidates, announced today the first round of congressional endorsements in the 2024 election cycle for the U.S. Senate and U.S. House of Representatives – 85 incumbent climate and democracy champions and 5 new candidates in key districts.
“As our nation and our planet suffer from this summer’s deadly and devastating impacts of the climate crisis, it’s more clear than ever that we need to elect and re-elect congressional champions who will fight for effective and equitable climate solutions at the scale and pace that science and justice demand,” said LCV Action Fund Senior Vice President of Government Affairs Tiernan Sittenfeld.
