Washington, D.C. – The League of Conservation Voters (LCV) Action Fund congratulates Representative Elissa Slotkin on her victory in last night’s primary election for U.S. Senate in Michigan, Representatives Hillary Scholten (MI-03) and Haley Stevens (MI-11) and candidate Michigan State Senator Kristen McDonald Rivet (MI-08) on their victories in tonight’s primary election, and former Michigan State Senator Curtis Hertel (MI-07) for advancing to the general election.

“Congratulations to these climate champions on their victories in Michigan!” said LCV Action Fund Senior Vice President for Government Affairs Tiernan Sittenfeld. “Communities of color and communities with low wealth across the country and Michigan are experiencing the worst impacts of the climate crisis and pollution. Protecting our climate and our communities could not be more urgent after the hottest day and hottest year on record, and LCV Action Fund is all-in to support candidates who will put people over Big Polluters, fight for a more free and fair democracy, to protect clean air and water, and to advance a clean energy future for all.”
