DEFENDING DEMOCRACY
The League encourages informed and active participation in government, works to increase understanding of major public policy issues and influences public policy through education and advocacy. We are a nonpartisan group supporting Democracy in Action.
The League of Women Voters educates and advocates for voters, knowing that the leaders you elect make the decisions that affect YOU - jobs, health care, energy costs, security and more. The League helps you register, become informed on the candidates and issues, fight voter suppression, advocate for fair redistricting and... to VOTE.
