LCV endorsed Ann Kirkpatrick today for Congress in Arizona’s 1st District. Throughout her time as a state legislator, Kirkpatrick fought for clean air and water, led the state into its top use of solar energy, and helped to create green jobs.
Kirkpatrick’s work to protect the environment earned her a 100% state voting record and her subsequent place on the Arizona League of Conservation Voters’ 2007 Honor Roll.
LCV’s Tony Massaro was at the kickoff of Conservationists for Kirkpatrick and being encouraged by her state level contributions to the clean energy cause is confident in her to be a leader on the environment in the House.

The LCV will have a lot of trouble explaining this move. No one is fooled; Kirkpatrick is not the strongest environmental candidate in the race-- not by a long shot. Howard Shanker has the support of the environmental community, as well as the Native American Reservations, and thousands of voters across CD1 who still believe the democratic process can turn out strong, honest candidates.
Kirkpatrick may have the endorsement BUT the independent candidate in Arizona's 1st congressional district, Brent Maupin, proved he knew the issues best at the forum in Camp Verde.
