OUR MISSION

Vote by vote, Georgia Conservation Voters is transforming the political landscape by electing leaders with conservation values and holding them accountable to implementing policies that ensure clean water and air, abundant wildlife, scenic landscapes, and economic opportunities for all Georgians.

Georgia Conservation Voters is the political voice of the conservation movement in Georgia.

GCV takes our inspiration from the local, regional and state conservation groups who prioritize the issues on which we work. Because these groups are not allowed to engage in electoral politics, we undertake that mission on their behalf.

GCV is focused on lobbying and electoral action in the Georgia General Assembly.  Jerry McCollum, CEO and President of the Georgia Wildlife Federation, puts it well:

"Every indicator shows that the voters are way ahead of most politicians on understanding the environmental threats to Georgia's future.  Georgians want to conserve the beauty of our state, and protect the health of our children.  Georgia Conservation Voters will bring accountability to legislators who refuse to understand what the voters clearly want."
