2018 ME Senate race: on Environment


Angus King: Support EPA brownfield program for industrial cleanup

Angus King sits on the Energy and Natural Resources Committee. From that position he has protected our national parks and toiled on renewable energy issues to reduce the environmental impacts of climate change. He has voted in favor of increasing the EPA's Brownfield program to clean up polluted industrial and hazardous waste sites. In Maine he fought successfully to ensure that entrance fees at Acadia National Park didn't spike out of reach of most of us.
