OPINION: Judicial Elections Key to Protecting Pennsylvania's Democracy and Our Environment

While judicial elections generally don’t make news, this year’s statewide contests will shape the future of Pennsylvania for years to come.

And if you are a Pennsylvania resident who cares about the environment and fighting climate change, this election is your chance to take action to support clear air, clean water and natural resource conservation for communities across our commonwealth and for future generations.

The stakes are even higher this year, when our state Supreme Court’s pro-environment majority is at stake and when the extremist U.S. Supreme Court is consistently failing to check the rampant overreach of an unhinged President Trump.

In this critical moment in our nation’s history, state courts play an essential role in protecting our rights to vote, to express ourselves and to have access to clean air and pure water.
