Petition Candidates for Sierra Club Board 2022
Please support these Candidates who are running by petition in order to change the current direction of the Board majority on a number of key issues:
- Aaron Mair
- Dr. Michael Dorsey
- Maya Khosla
- Kathryn (Kate) Bartholomew
- (A fifth petition candidate, James Woodley, had to withdraw from the race due to health reasons.)
Their slate would restore many of the key principles for which the Sierra Club has stood: wildlands protection, strengthening the grassroots chapter and groups rather than imposing a corporate top-down structure, supporting outings, including Inspiring Connections Outdoors (ICO) and chapter-level outings; and eliminating secrecy in Club board of directors decisions.

Grassroots Choice for Sierra Club Board 2022
How to Vote:
Importantly for Planet Patriots, the current Board majority has promoted inaccurate and misleading attacks on the Sierra Club’s founder, John Muir. These attacks should be rescinded. Also, the behavior of current Board members around this topic (particularly aimed against those Board members and volunteers seeking to set the record straight) has been very public and alarming to many of our Chapter and Group volunteers. This behavior must stop as well. For information on these attacks, see: https://johnmuir.org/sierra-club-vs-john-muir/
