For more than 30 years, the League of Conservation Voters Education Fund (the Fund) has worked to turn environmental values into national, state, and local priorities. In 2018 the Fund launched “Clean Energy for All,” a coordinated grassroots state-level education campaign to push for the United States to achieve 100 percent clean energy by at least 2050. Key factors to the Fund’s selection of states include implications for national climate policy, presence of other allies, and operational costs. This award supports the Fund’s ability to identify and determine how best to support state- and city-level education campaigns in over a dozen key states to increase policymaker and voter awareness of the health, economic, and security benefits from clean energy.
