The Iowa Chapter of the Sierra Club today announced its endorsement of Dan Kelley in the election for the House of Representatives’ District 29.
“I am pleased today to announce that the Sierra Club has officially endorsed Dan Kelley for re-election to the House of Representatives’ 29th District,” said Charles Winterwood, Iowa Chapter Political Chair. “We are confident that he will continue work to protect Iowa families’ health, air and water, and build a clean energy economy that works for Iowa.”
Kelley’s support for cleaning up impaired waters, protecting Iowa’s soil, backing air quality standards and furthering clean energy solutions moves Iowa toward forward movement rather than reversing Iowa’s progress, Winterwood said.
“We are deeply grateful to Rep. Kelley for his support for clean energy, clean air and clean water,” said Winterwood. “We look forward to continuing to work with Rep. Kelley upon his re-election to the House of Representatives.”
Along with the endorsement, the Sierra Club will lend its volunteer strength to Kelley’s campaign.
“We pledge to do all we can to help ensure Rep. Kelley is re-elected to Iowa’s House,” Winterwood said. “Sierra Club volunteers will contact voters on his behalf and we will speak to the public as often as possible about his environmental record. We look forward to a victory for Kelley on election night and to his support for a cleaner environment for Iowa.”
