LOBBYIST MESSAGE

NEVADA CONSERVATION LEAGUE
August is shaping up to be a VERY BUSY MONTH for Nevada Conservation League and our supporters. Whether you would like to learn more about clean energy, speak up to protect Nevada’s precious water resources, or simply learn more about what’s happening across the state, Nevada Conservation League is here to help. Also, be on the lookout for our various action alerts as Congress continues to discuss critical environmental protections and key conservation programs.
Protecting Nevada takes a lot of time and to continue our outreach and advocacy efforts, we need your help.
Make a contribution to Nevada Conservation League Education Fund TODAY and show your support for our state and our work. A gift of $5, $10, $20, or whatever you can give would be AWESOME!
