Dear Members,
A friend asked recently how it feels to be president of the League — whether it feels worthwhile. Absolutely! Politics can be pretty ugly; people, in some cases, have gotten rancorous and democratic principles have been tarnished. But. The principles of the League stand firm and it feels good to be part of that. As election season unfolds, we will engage and inform voters based on facts, sound reasoning and a commitment to a more perfect democracy. Yes, it feels worthwhile to be a Leaguer. I hope you...
