The political committee has been very busy interviewing candidates and making endorsements. The next step is supporting our endorsed candidates. One of the things we definitely want to do is to work the polling places in as many priority precincts as we can -- handing out flyers listing our endorsed candidates. Printing those flyers will cost money and right now we have very little of it in our PAC. So I urge all of you to donate to our PAC as much as you can afford. When we support candidates in this way they notice, and they are more motivated to support us once elected.
You can send a check made out to Sierra Club MD Chapter PAC to our PAC Treasurer, Mike Pretl, at Riverton Wharf, Riverton, MD 21837-2204. Please indicate your occupation, identify your employer, and specify a local Sierra Club Group (if any) to be credited with your contribution. You can donate online here.
And, if you want to volunteer for an endorsed candidate please call Betsy Johnson at 240-461-1402. Thanks for all you do to help elect our environmental champions.
