Committees

LWVGGB has many opportunities for local league members to become involved with the Greater Green Bay League. Interest Groups are a great way to learn more about Greater Green Bay and how government operates. There are many ways to work with the Greater Green Bay League.
 

ISSUE COMMITTEES:

  • CLIMATE CHANGE

The Climate Change Committee holds monthly meetings related to Climate Change.

League members are welcome to join the Climate Change Committee. For additional information contact Terri Gulyas at LWVGGB [at] gmail.com.

  • EDUCATION

The Education Committee, in conjunction with the State LWV has followed and analyzed the legislative activity relating to public education which has been considerable in the last year.

League members are welcome to join the Education Committee. For additional information contact Denise Gaumer Hutchison at denisegaumerhutchison [at] gmail.com.

  • FAIR ELECTIONS TEAM

The Fair Elections Team’s purpose is to "ensure fair representation for Greater Green Bay constituents."  The team is currently focused on ensuring Non-Partisan Redistricting (NPR) (i.e. preventing gerrymandering) and National Popular Vote (NPV).  Because maps are drawn every 10 years, we are currently focused on several NPR activities: understanding current/proposed legislation, educating the public, getting a referendum question on upcoming ballots, and encouraging our political candidates to support NPR.  

Future efforts will include ensuring the new Brown County Redistricting Procedure gets followed and determining how we can improve the voting process (vote by mail, election security, rank choice voting, etc.).    

To join the Fair Elections Team contact Jane Benson at janebenson [at] new.rr.com.

  • HEALTHCARE/ENVIRONMENT TEAM

The goals of the team include identifying ongoing changes in healthcare and recommending appropriate action, promoting accessible, affordable, and preventative health care for all people in Brown County, and following the impact of COVID. 

To join the Healthcare Team contact Jean Marsch at jean.marsch [at] gmail.com.

  • VOTER SERVICES TEAM

 

The Voter Services Team provides voter education, assists with voter registration, conducts candidate forums, and collaborates with youth organizations such as the Boys and Girls Club.  Meetings are usually held on the second Thursday of the month at 7:00 pm via Zoom, which is available on our website at https://my.lwv.org/wisconsin/greater-green-bay/committees. Additional time commitments depend on projects and activities individuals choose to work on as they arise. This committee is more active around election cycles.  Please contact Linda Bartlett at lbartlett097 [at] gmail.com with questions or for additional information.
