Every year, the Natural Resources Council of Maine is proud to host our members and supporters for Citizen Action Day — a day for Maine citizens to come to the State House in Augusta to speak with their legislators about important issues affecting Maine’s environment.

Join us for Citizen Action Day in Augusta on Tuesday, April 2, 2019. Learn more and register today.

Nearly 100 people join us each year to speak directly with their state legislators about laws that would impact Maine’s environment, for better or for worse. After a briefing from NRCM’s policy experts, we accompany folks to the State House to help them connect with their legislators.

NRCM is a well-respected presence in the halls of the State House, but time and time again we hear from legislators that meeting face to face with their constituents makes a big difference. Citizen Action Day provides a great opportunity for you to meet with your legislators and urge them to vote to protect Maine’s environment. Here in Maine, concerned citizens can have a big impact on the outcome of important legislation.

We welcome you to join us for a fun and exciting day in Augusta. You don't have to wait for Citizen Action Day to take action for Maine's environment. Visit our Take Action page any time to learn how you can help to protect Maine's air, land, water, and wildlife.
