Advocacy & Action

The Power of Nonpartisan Advocacy

The League of Women Voters is a nonpartisan organization committed to empowering voters and defending democracy. We advocate for issues, not parties or candidates, and believe in free, fair, and accessible elections for all.

In program planning, members review our advocacy positions to decide how they can be used for action at the local government level, as well as in the Oregon Legislature, or with the U.S. Congress.

Members recommend issues to address, new studies to undertake, or changes to current LWV advocacy positions.

If new advocacy is needed, members may recommend an in-depth study of the issues.

Please view the What Is Program slideshow to understand exactly how an idea becomes advocacy and makes democracy work for all of us.

Check out the Oregon LWV's Program Planning site for more information (https://www.lwvor.org/program-planning).
