Support NCEL

Donate today to empower state environmental champions

States hold the best hope for advancing policies that protect public health and ensure clean air and water. However, most legislatures are part-time and many legislators lack dedicated staff to combat environmental threats. Your support provides the resources and coordination legislators need to make progress in their states and defend existing environmental regulations from well-funded polluting interests.

How Your Donation Helps

Your donation directly provides us with the capacity needed to serve as remote environmental staff for state legislators who are often otherwise under-resourced and under-staffed.

Remote Staff

When a legislator needs information on an environmental issue, or potential solutions from other states, they can turn to NCEL for concise, informational resources and research as needed focused on replicable legislative solutions.

More than a Place to Meet

Your donation makes possible the operation of state-based, regional, national, and issue-focused working groups and meetings for state legislators to not only collaborate with one another, but with grassroots advocates, environmental justice leaders, and peer organizations.

Ensuring Healthy Communities

While corporations and industry spend millions on lobbying to preserve the status quo, NCEL counters by connecting legislators with peers from around the country for a more sustainable, healthier future for all.
