About us
The American Conservation Coalition (ACC) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to mobilizing people around environmental action through common-sense, market-based, and limited-government ideals. ACC was founded in June 2017 by a group of young conservatives who saw an ideological gap in the environmental movement preventing necessary action. ACC believes economic and environmental success go hand-in-hand, and everyone should feel empowered to take a seat at the table in discussions concerning conservation, clean energy, sportsmen’s rights, agriculture, climate, and much more. ACC seeks to activate people that are tired of partisan inaction on the grassroots, state, and federal levels -- bringing forth prosperous action on environmental issues that impact us all.

Our CEO Danielle Butcher Franz is quoted in Inside Climate News, saying the right's failure to platform policy addressing climate change is losing them support from young conservatives. "There’s a huge electoral liability for politicians who are still stuck in those types of rhetoric circles. It is something that you see both sides of the aisle of young conservatives and young progressives pushing back against, because it’s just not the reality that we live in.” https://lnkd.in/euE3d8kv
