Stand Up for Democracy
LWV CEO Celina Stewart speaking at Light4Democracy Rally on March 4, 2025 in Washington DC
Just over one month into the current Administration, the President has issued a series of executive orders and directed actions that violate the law and Congress’ power. Congress must act now to restore the stability of our nation before it’s too late.
The US Constitution establishes the authority of each branch of government to ensure a system of checks and balances. Congress’ daily inaction threatens the rule of law and our Constitution and greenlights the executive branch's gross overreach. Americans’ liberties, the Constitution, and our democracy are at imminent risk.
Last month, Leagues from all 50 states and DC wrote to Congress demanding they take action. Now, you can make your voice heard.
Urge your members of Congress to stand up for our democracy.
