Congressional Testimony

More than 750,000 Sierra Club members' voices are heard on Capitol Hill when Sierra Club representatives testify before Congressional Committees on important legislation that would affect America's air, water, lands, and wildlife. This testimony encourages members of Congress to consider the importance of protecting America's natural heritage when making their decisions, and enters the Sierra Club's stance on the public record.
