Your help is needed now for
Pennsylvania's Growing Greener 3
Legislation is now in the works to establish a greatly expanded
Growing Greener 3 funding program in both the PA House and Senate.
The legislation establishes a framework for the state to invest $315 million annually to support water protection, land conservation, outdoor recreation, and other environmental projects. Pennsylvania needs this new framework. Growing Greener could provide only $57 million for projects last year.
Here is a very simple message to communicate to your Representatives as soon as possible:
1. Growing Greener 3 is needed now to ensure our communities can continue to address critical environmental priorities.
2. Please support Growing Greener 3 by becoming a co-sponsor of the legislation.
Thank you for helping to make a difference!
We'll keep you posted on developments. In the meanwhile, we are also keeping a watch on the state budget process and how it may negatively impact - perhaps severely so - the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, and how that could directly affect parks and recreation systems throughout the state.
