LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS®

 January 2010: State Program Planning

All League programs emanate from the members like us, and this is our opportunity to participate in LWV Program Planning on both the state and national levels.  The League depends on the members to suggest areas of interest for studies, which may eventually become positions and thus the foundation for our advocacy.

Further details and study documents: Click here.

If you are unable to attend a unit meeting and have comments regarding state or national program planning please submit your Program Planning comments by January 18th.  You may submit your comments electronically to the Tarrant County League of Women Voters at:   lwvtarrantcounty@sbglobal.net

or by mail to:

 November 2009: Voting Procedures to Increase Voter Participation

IMPORTANT NOTICE: Your chance for input! The LWV-Texas study committee has completed their research and has written Facts and Issues papers on the following topics. We will discuss the material in our November unit meetings and decide if we concur that some or all of these procedures should be added to our current position on Election Laws and Voting Rights. Based on our input, the LWV-Texas Board of Directors will announce additions to our position on March 1, 2010.
