Speaker - PA's Environmental Rights Amendment
In Pennsylvania, we had an Environmental Rights Amendment adopted into our Constitution in 1971. It guarantees citizens the right to clean air, pure water and the preservation of natural resources. Learn more about how you can continue to stand up for those rights.

Worsening ecological crises and a new presidential administration mean any victories over the past year are now at risk. In the years ahead, we’ll have our work cut out for us. We’re lucky in Pennsylvania because we had an Environmental Rights Amendment adopted into our Constitution in 1971. It guarantees citizens the right to clean air, pure water and the preservation of natural resources. Learn more about how you can continue to stand up for those rights from “Mother of the Green Amendment” Maya van Rossum at 4:00 PM May 31 at the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship in State College at 780 Waupelani Drive Extension.
Maya K. van Rossum is the founder of Green Amendments For The Generations, a national nonprofit organization dedicated to inspiring passage of Green Amendments in every state constitution across our nation, and also at the federal level when the time is right. Green Amendments — a term coined and defined by Maya in our 2017 award winning book — recognize and protect environmental rights on par with other inalienable civic and political freedoms.
