One of MEIC’s most important activities is lobbying the State legislature on environmental issues. It is the reason MEIC was founded, and since the 1974 legislative session MEIC has been the leading voice for the environment. Because of MEIC’s presence, the environment is guaranteed to receive attention at the Capitol.

This year MEIC worked to forward many progressive enviromental bills—as well as to kill bad ones—in several issue areas, including global warming, energy policy, air quality, mining, water quality, state lands and land use, and public participation in Government.  (Click on issue areas at left to find out more information on specific bills MEIC supported and opposed during the session.)
