It is important to explain what the League of Women Voters does and why: “The League of Women Voters, a nonpartisan political organization, encourages the informed and active participation of citizens in government, works to increase understanding of major public policy issues, and influences public policy through education and advocacy.
The League was the outgrowth of the suffragist movement which resulted in women being given the right to vote in 1920.
The League studies issues of public policy, reaches consensus on those issues, and then can take action in the form of lobbying House and Senate members at the state and federal levels to support or oppose items of legislation.
