Upthegrove has earned our endorsement based on his qualifications and vision to navigate an agency facing considerable environmental challenges and new opportunities. Dave’s background in environmental advocacy is extensive. As a state legislator and county councilmember, he has moved policy that has helped to reduce carbon pollution, clean up toxins, improve oil spill prevention, doubled funding for salmon recovery, and protected mature forests in King County from clearcutting – earning a Legislator of the Year award from Washington Conservation Action along the way. Dave’s vision of environmental and social justice, combined with his extensive knowledge of and proven track record in creating policy solutions to environmental challenges is why the Sierra Club has strongly endorsed Dave Upthegrove to be Washington state’s next Commissioner for Public Lands. If elected, his vision for the DNR includes a commitment to good jobs, a strong rural economy, and an environmental approach to combating climate change. Also critical for the role of CPL is his vision for improving wildfire prevention and response, expanding recreation opportunities, honoring treaty rights, and strengthening the co-management of public lands with local tribes. This critical race is expected to be extremely close and your vote is crucial to make sure that Dave makes it through the primary. Vote Dave Upthegrove for Commissioner of Public Lands. <https://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=6258e7e7c1ae7031345b690484a68c81cc398d22ee5f39985f5e1289ff0f8e495bd398734c37356669005aee7382488275996bbf75490806> Sierra Club enthusiastically endorses Bob Ferguson for Governor of Washington. Bob has a strong and consistent record over his career as King County Councilman and two terms as Attorney General in supporting environmental protection, fighting climate pollution, and securing meaningful protections for our natural resources. As attorney general, Ferguson successfully challenged many actions by the Trump administration to roll back our clean water, air, and consumer protections. He forged coalitions with other state attorney generals in marshalling opposition to the numerous attacks on our bedrock environmental laws. Bob has a strong vision for the state of Washington. He recognizes that a strong economy and healthy environment go hand in hand. He is committed to advancing our climate action goals and keeping Washington in the lead with clean energy and technology development, and the good jobs that are created from that leadership. Bob recognizes the deep cultural heritage of our salmon and orca to Tribal Nations and Washington state overall – and has committed to effectively implementing the historic agreement with the Biden administration for Columbia Basin salmon and steelhead.
