Washington, D.C. – The League of Conservation Voters (LCV) Action Fund, which works to elect candidates who will support sound environmental policies, announced today its endorsement of Anita Malik for Congress in Arizona’s 6th Congressional District.

“LCV Action Fund is excited to endorse Anita Malik because she is serious about taking action to address the climate crisis,” said LCV Action Fund Senior Vice President of Government Affairs Tiernan Sittenfeld. “She is committed to investing in Arizona’s clean energy future and fighting for the marginalized communities that too often suffer most from the impacts of climate change and pollution.”

“Scientists and experts have been very clear about the effects of global warming,” said Anita Malik. “It’s our responsibility as citizens of the Earth to take care of our environment. We must be cognizant of how we are affecting the air we breathe and the water we drink. I’m proud to stand with the League of Conservation Voters as we have the same goals of environmental protections.”

Anita Malik was born in Kansas City, Missouri, and grew up in Arizona. She graduated with degrees in computer information systems and finance from Arizona State University (ASU), then earned her Master’s in journalism from the University of Southern California. She went to work in the Arizona tech industry as a business analyst at MircoAge. Malik then moved into journalism, working at The Arizona Republic and as deputy director at ASU’s Donald W. Reynolds National Center for Business Journalism. Most recently she served as the COO of ClearVoice, a content technology company. In Congress, Malik will prioritize investing in Arizona’s clean energy economy and will always fight for environmental justice for all communities.
