By Britten Chase, PolitickerOR.com Reporter

Both the National League of Conservation Voters and the Oregon League of Conservation Voters came out in support of U.S. Senate candidate Jeff Merkley (D-Portland) on Thursday.

“Jeff Merkley’s proven leadership on global warming and clean energy will help to break the Senate stalemate in Washington,” LCV President Gene Karpinski said. “Speaker Merkley’s plan to deal with global warming will simultaneously end America’s addiction to oil, protect the planet for future generations and bring clean energy jobs to Oregon.”
