Our Issues

  • A Fair & Free Democracy

    As an organization whose theory of change revolves around the ballot box, a healthy, accessible democracy that works for all Virginians is integral to our mission. When there are barriers to voting, or efforts that seek to silence or diminish the voices of Virginians, the environment suffers. We work to elect champions to office who support a strong democracy and will defend and expand voting rights while ensuring all Virginians are able to make their voices heard.

  • Healthy Communities

    The environment isn’t an abstract concept – it’s all around us, and plays a huge role in our quality of life, everything from how we get from place to place, to whether our kids have safe places to play. All Virginians deserve to live in healthy, balanced communities with abundant green spaces, access to the outdoors, and safe, clean ways to get from “Point A” to “Point B,” but this often isn’t the case.

  • Clean Water

    Clean water is a necessity. Without it, life as we know it can’t flourish. Unfortunately, the threats to water quality in Virginia are numerous – heavy industry, toxic chemicals, over-development, antiquated wastewater systems, urban runoff and pollution from agriculture all threaten our waterways, big and small.

  • Clean, Affordable Energy

    Today, Virginia is on the path to a 100% clean, affordable energy future – the only state in the south to commit to entirely phasing dirty, expensive fossil fuels out of our electricity mix. We had to fight hard to get here, and we will continue fighting not to just stay on track, but to get there faster.
