Tessine Murji is a conservation organizer with the Illinois Sierra Club based in Chicago, but is originally from Montreal. She manages the chapter's federal lobby team to make sure the Illinois delegation is consistently hearing from volunteers on Sierra Club priorities, and that elected officials are living up to their endorsements. She also runs the Chicago group's field team, where volunteers meet once a month with partner organizations to learn about and take action on some of Chicago's most pressing campaigns to protect people and the planet.
