What is a Position?

New? Start here ▶️


The League of Women Voters takes action on an issue only when there is a national position addressing that particular issue. Members conduct studies and come to consensus on an issue, in order to form a position. This thorough grassroots process ensures our advocacy is considered by a broad range of people, understood by our members, and we can present principled factual information to the public.(card 28)
