Maryland LCV endorses Wes Moore for Governor
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
ANNAPOLIS, MD (March 12, 2026) —
Today, the Maryland League of Conservation Voters announced its endorsement of Wes Moore for Governor. Maryland LCV Executive Director Kim Coble and Board Chairman Patrick Miller released the following statements. In addition, below is a statement from Governor Moore.
“I’m honored to have the endorsement of the Maryland League of Conservation Voters as we continue the work to protect Maryland’s precious natural resources,” said Governor Wes Moore. “In the past three years, we’ve taken bold action alongside the MLCV to pass the Chesapeake Bay Legacy Act, secure a $340 million agreement for improvements to the Conowingo Dam, and put hundreds of millions in funding towards projects to reduce pollution, boost clean energy options, and clean our waterways. So much of Maryland’s economy is dependent on clean water and air, our beautiful tourist destinations, and the health of the Chesapeake Bay which is why we must continue to work together to protect Maryland’s environment for the generations to come.”
“Maryland LCV was proud to be among the first organizations to endorse Governor Moore in 2022. We are looking forward to partnering with him over the next four years to deliver cleaner water, healthier air, and climate resilience for all Marylanders.” – Patrick Miller, Board Chair, Maryland League of Conservation Voters
“Governor Moore has been a champion for our state’s environment, which is especially critical at a time when the federal government has stepped back from its commitments. The Governor is committed to a healthier Maryland while also striving to reduce ratepayers’ soaring energy bills.”
– Kim Coble, Executive Director, Maryland League of Conservation Voters
Additional Maryland LCV endorsements are expected in the coming weeks.
