Empowering Voters. Defending Democracy.

Empoderar a los Votantes. Defiendo la Democracia.


We envision a democracy where every person
has the desire, right, knowledge, and confidence to participate.


Since its inception in 1920, the League of Women Voters has remained nonpartisan,
never endorsing or opposing particular political parties or candidates.
We believe issues and legislation remain above partisan politics
and encourage greater citizen involvement.


The League of Women Voters is a trusted voice for its advocacy and education campaigns.

Join us!
