Political Program

The Virginia Chapter Sierra Club works to elect pro-environmental candidates.

The mission of our political program is to preserve the environment through nonpartisan grassroots political action.

The principal goals of the program are carried out by our all-volunteer Political Committee and volunteers across the state, who work to:

To elect candidates who will support and promote environmental protection;
To raise public awareness about environmental issues and elevate the priority of these issues for decision-makers;
To encourage Club members and other environmentalists to participate in the political process;
To advance the Club’s conservation agenda by building relationships with legislators and other elected officials; and
To strengthen the Sierra Club’s capacity to elect pro-environment candidates at every level of government.
