At the national, state, and local levels, our Leagues choose position statements on policies and issues that reflect the health of our republic. League members to take a stand based on these shared positions and advocate at all levels of government in support of our defined positions. While the LWV at all levels is non-partisan, in approach, League members are not passive regarding good government!
