 Planning for the 90th anniversary of Women's Suffrage in 2010

The Leagues of North Central Texas would like to invite a prominent woman to Dallas-Fort Worth to speak. If you know a supreme court justice, a nationally known woman politician, or another prominent potential speaker for this important anniversary, or if you have friends who are friends of one of these women, please contact Dawn or Dorie.

Our New Web Site!   Welcome to the new web site! We have a completely new look that we hope you'll like. The main objects are to provide readily accessible information to the public about voting and selected issues, as well as to provide non-partisan information about candidates for all the various elections.

We have a Members page so that members can get to know each other - visible only to members of both LWC-TC and this web site. We urge you to sign up to join the web site - see the Welcome box at the upper left corner of this page. You will be able to easily send email messages to other members who belong to our web site community.
