Land Conservation Caucus
The Land Conservation Caucus is a bipartisan organization of House Members created by the combination of the Open Space Caucus and the Land Trust Caucus. The caucus seeks to educate Members of Congress and their staffs about issues of importance to the conservation and preservation of open space and farmland and to encourage policy that promotes these ends in order to preserve the beauty and regional charms of our country, maintain clean air and clean water, and promote the public health of our communities.
To join the Caucus, Members of Congress may contact Jesse Young in Rep. Chris Murphy’s office, Laura Carrell in Rep. Jim Gerlach’s office, or Betsy Christian in Rep. Joe Pitts’ office.
