Positions
Members of LWVMN are able to advocate on issues which have been studied, and voted upon by its members. A full review of LWV positions at the US and State level can be found in our Program for Action. A review of past LWV studies can be found here.
How To Get Involved!
LWV members get involved in the legislative process through our Observer & Lobby Corps (OCLC). This process educates members about how to effectively advocate for issues, and acts to inspire and coordinate member action with legislators to achieve our desired policy outcomes.
