BlueGreen Alliance Endorses Elaine Luria

October 17, 2022

The BlueGreen Alliance, a national partnership of labor unions and environmental organizations, today announced the organization has endorsed Rep. Elaine Luria for the Second Congressional District in Virginia.

The endorsement is a recognition of the leadership of Rep. Luria to create good-paying union jobs, fight economic and racial injustice, and reduce the emissions driving climate change. Rep. Luria voted for several key priorities, including the Inflation Reduction Act and Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.

“The BlueGreen Alliance is proud to endorse Rep. Luria for Congress,” said BlueGreen Alliance Executive Director Jason Walsh. “Our organization is founded on the belief that we don’t have to choose between good jobs and a clean environment; we can and must have both. Rep. Luria is a champion for building a clean, prosperous, and equitable future and is the best choice in the race for the Second Congressional District in Virginia.”

“We are excited to work alongside Rep. Luria in this election and beyond,” said Walsh.

This is the first year that the BlueGreen Alliance is endorsing candidates for Congress. Previously, the organization endorsed Joe Biden and Kamala Harris for President and Vice President of the United States in 2020—the first such endorsement in the organization’s history.
