For more than 30 years, TU’s Steve Moyer has been fighting for coldwater conservation in the nation’s capital. In February he retires.
Steve joined the TU staff in 1992, as the director of government affairs, after spending two years at the Sport Fishing Institute and another five as a fish and wildlife lobbyist with the National Wildlife Federation. It hasn’t been all politics for Moyer. He spent a few years in the 1990s as TU’s VP for conservation. He also was VP for volunteer operations for four years in the 2000s, a job he held concurrently with the top government affairs position. He’s been solely in the latter position since 2009.
Steve’s appreciation for and deep respect for TU’s grassroots has always been a major factor in how he approached his work.
“The combined strength of and dedication of staff and volunteers is absolutely splendid,” Steve wrote. “We have built relationships between volunteers and their legislators at the state and federal level that are strong and effective. When TU volunteers come to speak to members of Congress, members of Congress listen because our volunteers have such great reputations for getting good work done on the ground at home.”
In recent years, major efforts have been focused on issues such as protecting Alaska’s Bristol Bay, opening up 1,000 miles of habitat on Maine’s Penobscot system, strengthening fish habitat programs of the Farm Bill, defending the Clean Water Act, championing efforts to remove the lower four Snake River dams and much more. Much of our organization’s success has Steve’s fingerprints on it.
Join us in thanking Steve and congratulating him on a well-deserved retirement. On Tues., Jan. 24 we will host an online townhall with Steve where he will give one last government affairs update and share some reflections on his impressive career.
