▶ How does LWVMC use positions?

New? Start here ▶

LWVMC takes action only on issues where we have a national, state, or local position.These positions are developed through grassroots study and member consensus. This ensures our local advocacy reflects a broad range of perspectives, is well understood by our members, and is grounded in principled, factual information we can confidently share with the public.

What is a Position?

The League of Women Voters takes action on an issue only when we have a position addressing that particular issue. Members must study and come to consensus on an issue, in order to form a position. This thorough grassroots process ensures that our advocacy is well considered by a broad range of people, understood by our members, and we have a sense of the political environment.
