Washington, D.C. — In response to today’s announcement by the Democratic National Convention Committee (DNCC) and the Chicago 2024 Host Committee for two women-owned, Chicago-based firms, Bright Beat and Purpose, to serve as Sustainability Advisors for the Democratic National Convention, the League of Conservation Voters Action Fund (LCVAF) released the following statement from Senior Vice President of Government Affairs Tiernan Sittenfeld:

“LCV Action Fund applauds the selection of these two locally based, women-owned firms to lead sustainability efforts to lower emissions and implement pro-environmental policies for this year’s National Democratic Convention to make it the most sustainable convention yet. This strong commitment is in line with President Biden’s historic efforts as the most pro-climate action president ever. We look forward to the Biden-Harris record on climate, clean energy, and environmental justice being front and center at the convention.”
