Washington D.C. (August 1, 2024) – Two major national environmental groups – the League of Conservation Voters (LCV) Action Fund and the NRDC Action Fund – today jointly announced they have endorsed Collin O’Mara for governor of Delaware.
“Collin O’Mara has been a tireless advocate for our environment and our communities and LCV Action Fund is thrilled to endorse his candidacy,” said LCV Action Fund Senior Vice President of Government Affairs Tiernan Sittenfeld. “We just had the hottest day on Earth on record — we need more environmental leaders like O’Mara who know the stakes of the climate crisis and will fight for a clean energy future for all. Colin O’Mara has spent his career fighting to protect our communities, our wildlife, our air and water, and for clean energy, and we are proud to support his campaign to continue to fight for a clean energy future.”
“Collin O’Mara will be one the nation’s greenest governors, putting Delaware on a path to lead the nation in clean energy jobs, climate-smart development and environmental justice for communities most impacted by pollution,” said Manish Bapna, president and CEO of the NRDC Action Fund. “Collin stood up to Donald Trump to protect our environment, and he helped President Biden pass landmark legislation that’s creating jobs and giving us a chance to avoid catastrophic climate change. He knows how to bring people together to get big things done, and that’s what he’ll do for the people of Delaware as their governor.”
