Terri Lynn Land on Environment

As a conservative, I believe in conservation

Terri's Solutions:
• Stop Asian Carp: There are a number of invasive, non-native species, such as Zebra Mussels and Asian Carp, which threaten the ecology of the Great Lakes. I support Congressional action and the Asian Carp Prevention Act.
• Preserving Fresh Water: The Great Lakes are at very low levels. We have to consider how we can conserve our fresh water resources, while protecting and maintaining our waterways.
• Protecting State Parks: Michigan's state parks are vital to our economy and the Michigan way of life. I support Governor Snyder's idea of connecting state trails into an integrated system.

Endorsed Targeted as "Dirty Dozen" for anti-environmentalism.

The League of Conservation Voters (LCV)'s trademark Dirty Dozen program targets candidates for Congress--regardless of party affiliation--who consistently vote against clean energy and conservation and are running in races in which LCV has a serious chance to affect the outcome. Since 1996, more than 60 percent of the Dirty Dozen have been defeated.
