“People across the country cannot afford the rising energy costs caused by Trump and his MAGA allies in Congress,” said LCV Action Fund Senior Vice President of Government Affairs Sara Chieffo. “LCV Action Fund is proud to endorse these candidates who are committed to fighting for clean energy solutions and a free and fair democracy for all. It’s no coincidence that those most impacted by rising costs are the same communities harmed most by the climate crisis and extreme weather, which is why it is critical to win a pro-clean energy majority in Congress and fight back against Trump’s reckless policies and continued giveaways to his Big Polluter and billionaire donors.”
