Carnahan Endorsed by Conservation Group


The Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund (DWAF) have endorsed Congressman Carnahan for re-election.

"Now more than ever, it is essential to have Senators and Representatives who understand the value and importance of conserving America's natural heritage," said Rodger Schlickeisen, President of Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund.

"The Bush administration has proven to be disastrous for the environment. That's why it is imperative that we have a Congress that understands the value of conserving our natural heritage for future generations."

During his first term in office Congressman Carnahan has been a strong voice for conservation, including voting against drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and supporting alternative sources of energy that will be more environmentally friendly. He is committed to continuing the fight against Republican policies that are short-sighted and detrimental to the environment.

So, what do you think should be the highest environmental priorities when Democrats return to leadership in Congress? Your thoughts?
