Maryland LCV Gives Earliest Endorsement in Thirty-Year History. Says Governor O’Malley “Walks the Walk”

On January 22nd, the Maryland League of Conservation Voters issued the earliest gubernatorial endorsement in its 30-year history, announcing its support for the re-election of Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley and Lt. Gov. Anthony Brown almost ten months before Election Day, because, in the words of the organization's director; "They've earned it."

We want to hit the ground running to maximize our effort to educate Maryland's voters - whether they are Republican, Democrat or Independent, Gov. O'Malley should be their candidate if they care about protecting our air, land and water.

Help us re-elect Gov. Martin O'Malley by investing early in our campaign and volunteering to talk to conservation minded voters like you!

With your help, the Maryland LCV  has fought hard to achieve a seat at the table. Now we need to exercise our collective voice and keep the values of a clean, safe and productive environment front and center as legislators make tough decisions. The economy is on all our minds, but we are the ones to remind our legislators that good environmental policy is good economic policy.

What you can do: Tell the EPA that you choose clean water over allowing pollution of our rivers and streams by commenting on their website or by coming to a public forum.
