Summary of LWVOA Local Program Positions

The Local Program Positions are a summary of all LWVOA positions (arrived at by member consensus and concurrence procedures) on local governmental issues. Along with the national positions and the state positions these are the basis for League action.

The goal of the League of Women Voters is to take action on its positions.

Cooperation among governmental units (schools, parks & recreation, library, township & city government, community services, etc) is implied in the statement of LWV principles and applies to all positions.

 Below are the summary statements of each position. Find more detail about each position on the LWVOA's LOCAL PROGRAM POSITIONS document.
