About League of Women Voters

The League of Women Voters (LWV) is a nonpartisan political organization encouraging informed and active participation in government.  It influences public policy through education and advocacy.  We never support or oppose any political party or candidate.

The League of Women Voters has two distinct roles:

• Voters Education/Citizen Education.  We present unbiased nonpartisan information about elections, the voting process, and issues.
  
• Action/Advocacy.  After conducting a comprehensive study, we use our positions to advocate for or against particular policies in the public interest.
  

The League of Women Voters of Deschutes County (LWVDC) is a membership organization and is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) corporation.  Member dues and donations are all tax deductible!
