Endorsements

We urge you to consider the environment when you vote. Only by electing candidates who share the view of the Sierra Club on the importance of the protection of the environment can we make our state the model for the rest of the nation.

The Angeles Chapter of the Sierra Club’s Political Committee evaluates a candidate's record, reviews their questionnaire, and interviews the candidate before recommending an endorsement.

For more information about these endorsements, please contact the Political Committee at political@angeles.sierraclub.org.
