The New Hampshire Chapter of the Sierra Club is the ONLY environmental organization that endorses state candidates on their environmental merits for state office races in New Hampshire. We are proud to represent the environmental conscience of the voters of New Hampshire. We take this responsibility seriously by reviewing the voting record of incumbent elected officials and candidates, if they have one, as well as requesting interviews, and require an environmental policy questionnaire. We follow a strict nationally compliant process to preserve the integrity of the policies we promote and the people we represent. There are numerous additional benefits of our endorsement as well, including creating media opportunities for the endorsed candidates, social media announcements, inclusion in a state-wide mailing to our members, and other support.
SUPPORT OUR POLITICAL ACTIONS
The Chapter has a Political Action Committee to support the political and electioneering activities for the endorsed candidates. Donations to the political action committee are reported in accordance to the New Hampshire state law and are not tax deductible. The funds are used for mailings, media ads, outreach to the public, and direct donations to candidates.
DONATE TO THE STATE PAC!
We need leaders in the State House and in Congress who will put us on the path to 100% Clean Energy; leaders who will not waiver to polluters, convenience, or self-promotion. We need to adopt common-sense solutions now for everyone to have access to clean energy, healthy air, safe drinking water and a livable planet. We cannot not continue to postpone these goals in New Hampshire.
After a careful questioning and review process, the Environmental and Climate Champion candidates have earned an endorsement from the Sierra Club New Hampshire Chapter. The chapter volunteer-led political and executive committees are confident that the endorsed candidates are committed to a healthy and sustainable environment. We encourage you to vote for these candidates.
