2018 Endorsements

Every election cycle, CTLCV endorses candidates based on their positions and track record on the environment. By highlighting candidates who care about our values, we can help elect leaders who will make the right choices to protect Connecticut's most valuable resources.

This year, a record number of candidates sought CTLCV's endorsement—highlighting the importance of environmental issues in this election season and at the State Capitol.

CTLCV does not endorse in every race. We work hard to identify candidates we believe are true leaders on environmental issues based on their past work and their responses to our Candidate Questionnaire. This year, we are issuing endorsements on a rolling basis. Check back often to see if your candidate or legislator has been added to our list.
