Today the Sierra Club announced its endorsement of Rep. Betty McCollum for reelection in Minnesota's 4th Congressional District.
"We are thrilled to endorse Representative Betty McCollum for reelection in 2020," said Margaret Levin, State Director for the Sierra Club North Star Chapter. "As Chair of the Interior-Environment Appropriations Subcommittee, she has worked to defend critical environmental programs and safeguards and has been an outspoken opponent of Trump administration rollbacks. Throughout her service, Rep. McCollum has been a vocal and courageous advocate -- for action on climate, for protecting communities and clean water from sulfide-ore mining, and other critical issues affecting our state. "We are deeply grateful for her environmental leadership and look forward to continued work together at home and in Washington."
