I am a conservation voter because I want to preserve all of the awesome natural resources Wisconsin has to offer. We are so blessed that Wisconsin has so many lakes, rivers, parks, and natural areas that can be utilized by everyone. We all need to play a part in protecting these resources so generations after us can have the same experiences as us.
