Candidate Views
There are many reasons to vote for a candidate: party affiliation, position on taxes, jobs and national security. Whether you’re Republican, Democrat or Independent, we’d like you to consider the candidate’s views on energy, environment and climate when making your decision.
VGI volunteers put together non-partisan resources to help inform voters. Where available, it includes a summary of the candidate’s policy positions, voting record, ratings and a listing of campaign contributions from the fossil fuel industry based on publicly available information.
In addition, candidates in select races were invited to share their views through a questionnaire. Their responses (if any) are provided. Candidates were contacted multiple times; lack of a response to our inquiries is noted. These candidates have failed to provide voters with their positions on the key issue of our global environment.
Due to limited volunteer time and resources, only major party candidates in select contested races were evaluated.
