Why join OLCV?
OLCV believes that to truly protect Oregon's natural legacy, we can't afford to ignore politics. And that the quality of our kids' and grandkids' futures depend on our active and engaged citizenship today.
OLCV Holds Politicians Accountable
OLCV leads the fight to protect Oregon's environmental legacy during Legislative Sessions, coordinating the Oregon Conservation Network, a statewide coalition of environmental groups that promote environmental protection by passing legislation in Salem. Our local chapters engage in similar efforts with city councilors and county commissioners.
OLCV Educates Voters
For more than 30 years, OLCV has published a Legislative Scorecard after every legislative session that rates individual legislators' voting records on conservation issues.
The Scorecard is an essential tool for voters to separate pro-environment leaders from those who pretend to be.
OLCV Helps Protect Oregon's Natural Legacy by Helping Elect Pro-Environment Leaders
OLCV works to elect pro-environment leaders that will work hard to keep our air and water healthy and our farms and forests protected.
OLCV's Political Action Committee and local county chapters endorse strong, pro-environment candidates. We also support our endorsed candidates facing tough contests with two crucial resources: money and volunteers so they can protect the Oregon we love.
Join OLCV and help us leave a healthy legacy for our future generations.
