The LCV Victory Fund is the super PAC affiliated with the League of Conservation Voters (LCV), one of the oldest and largest environmental advocacy organizations in American politics. The Victory Fund handles LCV’s independent expenditures supporting candidates who, in the organization’s assessment, will protect environmental and climate policy.
LCV and its affiliates operate one of the most coordinated environmental political programs in the country, combining the 501(c)(4) advocacy arm (which conducts lobbying and issue advocacy without disclosing donors), the LCV Action Fund (a traditional PAC), and the Victory Fund (a super PAC). Together they spend in presidential, Senate, House, and gubernatorial races, with consistent endorsements going to Democratic candidates and occasional support for moderate Republicans on environmental issues.
LCV’s spending volume is smaller than the largest party-aligned super PACs but its long institutional history, in-house policy and scorecard infrastructure (the LCV National Environmental Scorecard rates every member of Congress on environmental votes), and ability to mobilize a substantial activist base make it one of the most influential issue-focused outside-spending organizations.
