A Shared Vision for Pennsylvania’s Environment and Communities

Sierra Club, along with PennFuture and other organizations, has produced a document detailing our shared priorities for the environment and other issues, which is intended to guide those running for office in the Commonwealth so as to educate them about our priorities and encourage these candidates to prioritize them as well.  

Here is an excerpt:

This year’s Shared Vision examines a suite of intersectional issues that reflect the many dimensions of environmental injustice. Building on and with appreciation to the People’s Plan for Climate Justice, we have organized our platform around the following issues: Air, Water; Energy, Housing and Land Use, Labor, Democracy, and Education. We are making recommendations in each of these areas for those of you running for office this year to consider in your campaigns. And if you are elected, we are asking you to contemplate our vision during your transition, to keep it in mind as you build your leadership teams, and above all, to act on it during your tenure in office.
