A non-partisan organization, promoting political responsibility through informed and active participation in government.


What is the League?

Our Mission

The League of Women Voters, a nonpartisan political organization, encourages informed and active participation in government, works to increase understanding of major public policy issues, and influences public policy through education and advocacy.

History

The League of Women Voters is an outgrowth of the National Suffrage Association.  It was founded in 1920 upon the ratification of the 19th Amendment, giving women the right to vote.  Our main activities include getting out an informed vote, furnishing the public with information on issues, and working for legislation in the public interest.

Nonpartisan Interests

The League is a nonpartisan organization.  Its interest is only in the field of government.  It does not support or oppose candidates or political parties, but members are encouraged to work as individuals in the political party of their choice.  To protect the nonpartisanship of the League, Board members do not work actively in their parties while serving on the Board.
