How much does it cost?

LWV Membership dues have a recommended rate of $75 per person. However, you can choose any amount below that, down to a minimum of $20 per person. Paying more than the recommended rate helps to support those members who pay below the recommended rate. 

Allocation of dues among the three league levels
 

Your dues are allocated on a sliding scale among the three levels of the League, with 20% going to LWVLA, 33% to LWVPA, and 47% going to LWVUS.
