Elections

Elections matter. The people we elect to represent us – from the White House to the State House to City and Town Council – hold tremendous power over the policies that protect or threaten our natural resources. 

We can only elect environmentally responsible candidates across the state with your vote!

PA Judicial Retention Elections are this November

This year, Pennsylvania voters will decide the makeup of the state Supreme Court.

Right now, the court is controlled by judges who support pro-environment policies — but that could change. This November, three state Supreme Court justices are facing retention elections. Instead of choosing between candidates, you will get to vote simply YES or NO on whether a justice serves for another 10-year term. A YES vote keeps them on the bench, but a NO vote removes them, allowing the governor to appoint a temporary replacement before holding an election.

Pennsylvania’s courts make crucial decisions about elections, holding polluters accountable, and upholding Pennsylvania's Environmental Rights Amendment.

Justice is on the ballot this November. It’s up to all of us to protect it.

May 20, 2025 is the Primary Municipal Election

Nov. 4, 2025 is the General Municipal Election

Every election year, we endorse candidates whom we expect to be environmental champions as well as ballot measures that protect and restore Pennsylvania’s environment. See which candidates we endorsed in the 2024 cycle.
