MCV Action Fund’s endorsement program seeks to elect environmental leaders who will address the climate crisis and advance a more equitable clean energy future. The organization evaluates candidates’ votes and policy positions to endorse candidates who will fight to protect our air, water, and health. 

Beth Ahearn, director of government affairs of the MCV Action Fund, said of the endorsees: “These candidates have proven themselves as reliable champions for Maine’s environment. Our endorsees are people who will work to ensure we have clean air to breathe, clean water to drink, and a legacy of protected lands to enjoy. They recognize that a clean environment and vibrant economy go hand-in-hand, and will work tirelessly to protect the air, land, and water that Maine people love, and will fight to ensure we have healthy, pollution-free communities across the state.”
