Stands on Issues

The League uses its positions to advocate on issues.

League advocacy begins with members selecting, studying and seeking consensus on issues which are of public concern. When consensus is achieved, the League has a position. The League uses its positions to advocate for policies, legislation and ballot measures which it believes would best serve the public interest and against proposals which are in conflict with those goals.

The following are local issues on which the LWV of Santa Cruz County has positions:

• County Government
• Education
• Health Care
• Land Use
• Library Service
• Transportation
• Voters' Rights
• Water Resources
