The League of Women Voters, a nonpartisan political organization, encourages informed and active participation in government, works to increase understanding of major public policy issues, and influences public policy through education and advocacy. 

• We care about democracy: citizens need to understand how government works at all levels and what their role is in making sure our elected representatives are responsive to the will of the people.
• We care about elections: every eligible citizen should be registered to vote and urged to go to the polls on election day.
• We care about voter information: prospective voters need unbiased, accurate information on issues and candidates in every election.
• We care about government: meetings of governing bodies at all levels must be open to the public and their records easily reviewed.
• We care about education: every child should have access to good quality public education which provides equal opportunity for all.
• We care about issues: local, state, regional and national. We study issues, come to agreement on positions, encourage legislation supporting our positions.
• We care about the environment: we study local and national environmental issues and encourage action based on science.
