Overview
This renewal grant will support the League of Conservation Voters Education Fund efforts to secure new protections for the West’s public lands and waters. The Fund works to turn environmental values into national, state, and local priorities. This grant will support the Fund’s efforts to encourage the creation of new national monuments, reduce the impact of coal mining on Western public lands, promote the adoption of a permanent source of federal funding for land purchases, and secure strong stream protections under the Clean Water Act. To accomplish these goals, the Fund will educate decision makers in federal agencies and the White House, work closely with other conservation organizations, and communicate to the public through traditional and social media.

The League of Conservation Voters Education Fund works to turn environmental values into national, state, and local priorities. In collaboration with its state partners, the fund 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. The fund also works to support robust implementation of the Inflation Reduction Act; ambitious environmental regulations; and the full realization of the Justice40 Initiative, which aims to deliver 40% of benefits from federal climate investments to under-invested communities.
