Informing the Public about the Most Important Environmental Legislation & Tracking How Congress Voted
LCV produces the National Environmental Scorecard, the authoritative record of how members of Congress and the Administration handle the most important environmental issues before them each session. The Scorecard provides explanations of the most important environmental bills that Congress consider. Click Here to see the 2008 National Environmental Scorecard.
The Online Vote Tracker informs the public about how their own and other representatives vote on those bills in real-time. This tool encourages and enables citizens to contact their leaders to thank those who protect the environment and change the minds of those who need to give sound environmental policy greater importance during their tenure.

How You Can Help
A new clean energy policy can bring the change we need. Anti-environmentalists continue to push for the failed policies of the past, but your voice can make a difference.
Tell Congress to Vote for Clean Energy! A clean energy economy can create millions of new American jobs, revolutionize industry, reduce our dependence on foreign oil, and curb the worst effects of global warming.

Congress has been in recess for over a month now, and it will be another few days before Washington sees them again. Understandably, many people ask, “Why do our legislators need so much time off?” |
