The League Observer Corps monitors local government bodies for information of importance to the League and to our communities. Observing is a vital aspect of our civic engagement mission.

Position

Township government should be accessible, transparent, and fiscally sound.

Position

The League of Women Voters of Connecticut urges all political parties to make their process more accessible to the public.

Position

The League of Women Voters of Connecticut believes that a free and open Internet is increasingly important to the protection of individual liberties – freedom of speech, freedom of the press, and freedom of association – guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution and by the Connecticut Constitution.

The League of Women Voters of Metro St. Louis has adopted a number of local positions describing our interests in good government in our region.  These emphasize high ethical standards, transparency, and ample public participation.

In terms of ethics, we have supported written and enforceable ethical standards for elected officials and lobbyists, limits on campaign contributions, and other actions that limit the power of moneyed interests.

Cleaner air improves human health, protects the environment, and contributes to the reversal of climate change. What you can do: Email or call the Senate Leadership, Senators Looney and Duff today and ask them to bring the bills to the floor for a vote. There are fewer than 20 days left to the legislative session.
