Mission Statement
The League of Conservation Voters Education Fund (LCVEF) works to turn environmental values into national, state and local priorities. LCVEF, in collaboration with our state LCVEF partners, advocates for strong environmental protections, organizes communities to speak up about their environmental values, and engages people in the democratic process in order to enact strong environmental laws.
About This Cause
The need to address climate change has never been more urgent. People, communities, and our planet are increasingly threatened by the impacts of climate change. Meanwhile, polluters and their allies continue to oppose action on climate to protect their profits — increasing the scale and severity of the crisis. At the same time, our nation’s democracy — its institutions and processes — has been overtaken by interests that benefit from laws that suppress voting rights and subvert our core election systems, making it harder for people to vote for leaders who will address the climate crisis. The communities who are most often disenfranchised by voter suppression laws — Black, Indigenous, Latinx, other people of color, and immigrants, as well as young people and people with disabilities — are the same communities who bear the brunt of climate change and polluters’ unchecked actions. These same communities are also more likely to care about climate and environmental justice and engage civically to advance these issues. Threats to our climate and democracy are inextricably linked, and addressing both requires greater civic participation. To address these interconnected challenges, the League of Conservation Voters Education Fund (LCVEF): * Expands voter participation * Organizes and mobilizes for better policies * Educates the public * Builds grassroots power in communities * Partners with and supports our 30+ state affiliates and other allies LCVEF and our partners do this work — to strengthen our democracy, address the climate crisis, and advance environmental justice — because we envision a world with cleaner and healthier communities, informed and engaged voters, and a more just, equitable, and sustainable future for all. We’re glad you’re here, and we hope you’ll join us in this work.
