Keep Walz working, to aid environment
In his first term in the United States Congress, Minnesota’s First District Representative Tim Walz has earned the support of two nonpartisan environmental groups, the League of Conservative Voters and the Sierra Club. Both organizations are endorsing Walz for a second term.
LCV President Gene Karpinski said, “Congressman Walz has done a great job of reaching across the aisle and working with other freshmen members of congress to promote bi-partisan legislation that will make a real impact on the environment and the economy. He has bright new ideas for his next term and will continue to be a strong ally for clean energy in Congress. He has supported groundbreaking initiatives that will end our addiction to oil, invest in renewable energy sources and create jobs right here at home.”
I hope others will join me in voting for Walz so that he can continue this good work.
