For more than 90 years, the League of Women Voters has been an influential voice on issues such as election reform, ethics in leadership, transportation, education, land use, civil rights and more. All League action is based upon our positions which are developed through consensus discussions by members, after a thorough study of the issues. Read our positions.

Lobby Team
Each year, the state League organizes a lobby day to fight for issues that we have taken a stand on. Lobby days generally include a briefing on the issues, meeting with legislators and attending committee meetings or hearings. The Lobby Team stays active during the legislative session. Learn more about how to join the Lobby Team.
