Senator Dave McCormick (R-PA) has joined three bipartisan congressional caucuses focused on conservation and land management. The groups are the Roosevelt Conservation Caucus, the Congressional Sportsmen’s Caucus, and the Senate Stewardship Caucus.
In a statement, Senator McCormick said, “Pennsylvania is home to rolling hills, historic landmarks, and beautiful farmland. As U.S. Senator, my priority will always be to advance policies that strengthen our communities, preserve our natural resources, and ensure a strong future for the Pennsylvania we know and love. I’m proud to join the Roosevelt Conservation Caucus, the Congressional Sportsmen’s Caucus, and the Senate Stewardship Caucus, which share a commitment to bipartisan collaboration on conservation, land management, and energy innovation. Together, we can expand Pennsylvania’s leadership in energy, from natural gas and nuclear to emerging technologies, while ensuring responsible stewardship and lasting resources for generations to come.”
The Roosevelt Conservation Caucus was established in 2019. It promotes right-of-center approaches to issues such as clean air and water, affordable low-emission energy sources, wildlife conservation, and access to public lands. The caucus favors market-based solutions and private property rights over centralized planning.
The Congressional Sportsmen’s Caucus began in 1989. It is one of Congress’s largest caucuses with more than 200 members from almost every state. The group works with the Congressional Sportsmen’s Foundation to support hunters, anglers, recreational shooters and trappers through initiatives related to conservation and habitat protection.
The Senate Stewardship Caucus focuses on conserving natural landscapes across the country. Its priorities include public land access, outdoor recreation opportunities, responsible land management practices and keeping these areas accessible for future generations.
