Moore Statement on 40th Earth Day Celebration

Washington, DC, April 22, 2010

(Washington, DC)— U.S. Congresswoman Gwen Moore (D-Milwaukee) made the following statement today on the 40th anniversary of Earth Day:

“Forty years ago, Wisconsin Senator Gaylord Nelson started a grass-roots movement to hold elected officials accountable as stewards of our environment.  And the movement and his legacy continue today.

“Lake Michigan is our greatest resource.  It is critical to our economy.  It is part of our city’s identity.  Earth Day reminds us that it is our responsibility to preserve and protect it for future generations.”
