National LCV Releases Federal Scorecard

The League of Conservation Voters, which works to turn environmental values into national priorities, today released the 2008 National Environmental Scorecard. For 30 years, the non-partisan National Environmental Scorecard from LCV has been the nationally accepted yardstick used to rate Members of Congress on conservation and energy issues.

Minnesota members of Congress had scores ranging from 100 percent (Sen. Amy Klobuchar, Rep. Betty McCollum and Keith Ellison) to just 8 percent (Rep. John Kline, Rep. Michele Bachmann). Clean energy issues important to Minnesota’s economy, clean air, and clean water were among the rated votes.
