The League of Women Voters is a non-partisan, grassroots local, state, and national organization of women and men that believes that informed citizens can make a difference in government on the local, state and national levels. League members learn about issues that affect our daily lives and then take action - including lobbying legislators to improve existing laws. We do not support candidates or parties, but we do support issues which are selected by our members. We are involved in Candidate Forums, Voter Registration, Voter Service Activities, we present topical discussions and lobby for League supported issues at the local, state and federal levels. We also enjoy each others' company!
