Senator Marx received the recognition for her support of bills and new laws seeking to utilize clean energy resources, protect the state’s climate, fight invasive plant species, and improve recycling practices across Connecticut, among other efforts.
Environmental champions, the CTLCV said, were recognized for “leading the charge” on efforts to reduce emissions, protect natural resources and promote clean energy efforts.
“We need clean water, fresh air and our natural environments to truly thrive in Connecticut,” said Sen. Marx. “It’s in support of our communities and our residents that I fight for and advocate for policies protecting us and future generations against future climate impacts. I’m grateful to the CTLCV for its recognition.”
The CTLCV reviewed legislation regarding climate protection, climate resiliency, energy policy, clean energy and utilities, pollution, wild lands and waters, and developmental and environmental protection in its review.
In addition to recognizing Sen. Marx for her support of environmental policies, the CTLCV gave her an overall score of 86% for the 2025 legislative session, a solid B score. The organization docked points from legislators who voted in support of allowing hunting on Sundays on private lands and to establish a bear hunting season. The latter bill did not become law.
