At the national convention this past summer, LWV-US delegates voted to proceed with a study on the federal judiciary. The directive from National focuses on

•  judicial accountability
• transparency
• independence
• ethics

Are you interested in participating in this study? It will be conducted at the local level by our LWV-Washtenaw County members and will involve

• a time commitment between mid-January to late April 2025
• reading background materials and studying one (or more) of the above areas
• attending subcommittee meetings to discuss and prepare for a presentation to League members
• achieving consensus, which will be sent to the National league for input on a national position on the federal judiciary.

Please fill out this form if you are interested, and we will contact you in early January with further information

Federal Judiciary Study 

Sincerely,

Zoe Behnke and Catherine Murau, Co-chairs
