DENVER—Two Colorado conservation groups are merging.
The Colorado Environmental Coalition and Colorado Conservation Voters said Thursday they will join to form a new organization. They haven’t picked a new name yet.
The Colorado Environmental Coalition, led by Elise Jones, has focused on policy, advocacy and organizing work. Colorado Conservation Voters, led by Pete Maysmith, focuses on electing pro-environment candidates to public office and holding them accountable.
The groups say Maysmith will lead the new organization, while Jones is leaving to run for Boulder County commissioner.
