In 2013, the Delaware Riverkeeper Network, led by Green Amendments For the Generations founder & Delaware Riverkeeper Maya van Rossum, won a watershed legal victory that not only protected Pennsylvania communities from ruthless frackers, but affirmed the constitutional right of people in the state to a clean and healthy environment.

Following this victory, van Rossum defined the term "Green Amendment" (enforceable environmental rights amendments placed in the Bill of Rights section of a state constitution) and launched the Green Amendment movement, dedicated to empowering every American community to mobilize for constitutional change in order to protect our environment for present and future generations.

Colorado is one of 20 states leading the Green Amendment movement, and each state has its own set of steering committee partners, priorities, and strategies. Donate now to support Colorado's movement! Funds will support creation of a Colorado website, development of unique informational resources tailored to the state's environmental issues and priorities, and more!
