The League is a political grassroots network and membership organization that believes the freedom to vote is a nonpartisan issue. For more than a century, we’ve worked to empower voters and defend democracy. As a women-led organization, we encourage everyone to take part in our democracy.
We center the voices of the communities we serve and seek justice for those most often impacted by systemic racism and oppression in our democracy.
We courageously stand in our nonpartisanship, centering the rights of voters over the power of politicians and political parties. We are committed to treating all individuals with respect and dignity.
We build community power through emboldening (extra)ordinary people to gain knowledge and skills, get engaged, and lead.
We foster trust through an open, accountable, accessible, and visible decision-making process. We take accountability for our mistakes and celebrate our growth.
We prioritize collaboration, community, and belonging through strengthening partnerships with individuals and organizations that share our values and goals.
