NEW YORK --- The New York League of Conservation Voters, the political voice for New York's environmental community, today announced its "green" slate of candidates for the Nov. 4, 2008 general election. The League endorsed 66 candidates running for Congress, State Senate and Assembly, representing districts across the state and both major political parties.

"New York and the nation are facing the most serious energy and economic challenges of our time," said Marcia Bystryn, president of the New York League of Conservation Voters. "Now more than ever, we need innovative elected officials who will lead the fight against climate change, end our dependence on foreign oil and create a new ‘green' economy. Members of our 2008 slate understand these challenges and will help lead New York State toward a cleaner, greener future."
