To: Rep. Bruce Poliquin

Tell Rep. Bruce Poliquin To Stand Up for the Environment and Not For Polluters- Sign The Petition!

Maine’s 2nd District Congressman Bruce Poliquin fails miserably when it comes to the environment. The League of Conservation Voters released their 2015 Environmental Scorecard and gave Congressman Poliquin a 9% out of a possible 100 score for “voting consistently with other members of what's been dubbed the most anti-environmental Congress in our nation’s history” (LCV press release, 2/24/2106).

Rep. Poliquin also questions climate change: “Clearly our climate is changing; the question is, is man responsible for that climate change? I personally am suspect”(MPBN, 6/4/10).

We’re asking Bruce Poliquin to protect Maine’s water, land, and wildlife for future generations. Please sign your name to show your support and help keep Maine the way life should be!

Why is this important?

Bruce Poliquin’s voting record and beliefs are reckless and a threat to Maine’s environment and, by extension, its economy. Not only did he vote to dismantle efforts to tackle climate change, and to block drinking water protections for one in three Americans, he also questions the basis of global warming. He consistently votes with polluters, Wall Street, and big banks and NOT with Maine people and the environment.

Emily Cain is running for Congress to represent the 2nd district because she understands that Maine’s economic health depends on the strength of her environment. Our economy’s foundation is built on a healthy environment: tourism, hunting, agriculture and fishing remain pillars of our state’s economy and our traditional way of life. Bruce Poliquin’s refusal to acknowledge our role in global warming and his votes for big polluters put our environment and good Maine jobs at risk.
