Izaak Walton League
The Izaak Walton League was established by anglers in 1922 who were furious that the government wasn't doing anything to prevent water pollution, so it's no surprise they care about clean water. They've been behind most of the bedrock conservation laws passed over the past 100 years. It's a traditional hook and bullet conservation organization. Most chapters have shooting ranges and encourage good solid conservation policy. They probably have roughly equal numbers of Republicans, Democrats, Independent because conservation is really a nonpartisan cause where we should all be on the same page anyway. There are plenty of Republicans who support our basic environmental laws.
