RALEIGH—NC League of Conservation Voters’ (NCLCV) Conservation PAC (CPAC) announced today its endorsement of former four-term legislator Grier Martin for the House District 34 seat being vacated by Representative Deborah Ross.
“Although we are sad about Rep. Ross’ departure, to know we have the potential to fill her shoes with someone with the dedication and commitment of Grier Martin is exciting,” said Dan Crawford, director of governmental relations for NCLCV. “Grier understands protecting our state’s natural heritage goes hand in hand with rebuilding our fragile economy.”
“I am honored to have the support of NCLCV. I look forward to continuing to defend the air we breathe and the water we drink,” said Grier Martin.
NCLCV has endorsed Rep. Martin in all of his previous campaigns for state legislature. He has a lifetime score of 96% on NCLCV’s Conservation Scorecard.
NC League of Conservation Voters is a statewide conservation organization dedicated to protecting the health of our communities and natural resources. NCLCV established its non-partisan CPAC to support legislators who will protect the health and future of North Carolinians by being good stewards of our air, water, and land.
