ConservAmerica : ウィキペディア英語版 | ConservAmerica ConservAmerica, formerly known as Republicans for Environmental Protection (REP), is a national organization of United States Republican Party voters formed in 1995. REP's stated purpose is to strengthen the Republican Party's stance on environmental issues and support efforts to conserve natural resources and protect human and environmental health. Incorporated in Illinois, its headquarters are in Sturgis, Michigan. On March 30, 2012, REP President Rob Sisson and Chairwoman Tina Beattie announced that the organization would be changing its name to ConservAmerica. ConservAmerica had been the name of REP's sister 501(c)3 organization; that nonprofit is now called the ConservAmerica Education Fund.〔 ==History== REP was founded in 1995 by three women, Martha Marks, who at the time was a member of the Lake County, Illinois, Board of County Commissioners; Kim O'Keefe-Wilkins; and Aurie Kryzuda. They met at an endangered species conference in Chevy Chase, Maryland. As lifelong Republicans, they were concerned that the new Republican majority in the 104th Congress was seeking to weaken the Clean Water Act and other environmental laws. In April 2012, the group renamed itself "ConservAmerica", a name that it said represented "the inherent connection between conservation and conservatism" while appealing to an audience that has grown less party-affiliated. David Jenkins, the group's vice president for governmental and political affairs, said that "Messaging through a Republican frame doesn't reach () as well as reaching them through a conservative frame." The group is keeping its green elephant logo.
