Fall into CLEAN WATER Advocacy: 2022 NEW JERSEY STATE HOUSE EDUCATION Week A major success
With the legislative session in New Jersey starting to heat up again, NJ members of the Coalition for the Delaware River Watershed moved their Statehouse Education Week from the traditional December timeframe to mid-October in order to better shepherd priority bills through the legislature.
The Coalition for the Delaware River Watershed, New Jersey League of Conservation Voters, and other partners spent a week in October virtually meeting with and educating New Jersey legislators on Coalition priorities that protect clean water and healthy communities in the state. These meetings are an opportunity to bring attention to funding and programs that support conservation and clean water in New Jersey.
