Since 1920, the League of Women Voters has been an activist, grassroots organization whose leaders believe that ordinary people play a critical role in democracy. 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!
