 ABOUT

This is an exciting time for the League of Women Voters. For nearly 100 years the League has empowered women (and men) to work together to improve our political system and support American voters. The League has always been a safe-haven for women, regardless of formal party affiliation, to find their voices on issues that matter to them. As we approach our 100th anniversary we are reminded that government of the people, by the people and for the people cannot function without active involvement of the people. Like our democracy, the League has been through prosperous times and lean times and the League remains a force for change today because our members and supporters have never lost sight of the importance of the voice of the people. Even more important than our celebrated past or the impact we have in the present, are the hopes and goals we have for our future. Join us in Jackson on
June 8th for our annual state convention to envision the work we can accomplish in our next 100 years!

The League of Women Voters is a nonpartisan, multipurpose organization of women and men that encourages the informed and active participation of citizens in government and influences policy through education and advocacy. The League does not support or oppose candidates or political parties. We do provide a forum where all candidates to an office can state their own positions.
