Sen. André Jacque of De Pere was once again chosen as the Wisconsin lead this year for a national group of state lawmakers working to advance a pro-environment and conservation agenda.
The National Caucus of Environmental Legislators (NCEL) brings together state lawmakers to pool their knowledge and experiences to coordinate efforts to shape federal policy, or to take coordinated action in areas that federal government has yet to address.
Sen. Jacque said in a news release that this cause is important to him because, “We need to protect the environment for future generations precisely because so much, including many of Wisconsin’s economic sectors and jobs from agriculture to tourism and forestry depend on it.”
