Happy New Year!
Beginning January 10, the League of Women Voters of West Virginia (LWVWV) will be monitoring votes and actions of our Legislature in relation to our four top policy priorities:
-
Strengthening democracy by making it easier to vote -
Safeguarding equal rights -
Protecting children & families -
Creating a sustainable future
The LWVWV Legislative Scorecard, first published in 2023 (available at lwvwv.org) records how individual members of the Legislature voted on 25 bills in these four areas that became law in 2023. We will use the same framework as we monitor the upcoming 2024 Legislative session.
Please join us Thursday, January 4th at 7PM to learn more about our 2023 legislative scorecard https://lwvwv.org/scorecard-overview/ and how the process will be applied to the upcoming legislative session.
Register here:

We look forward to seeing you on Thursday.
Sincerely,
Julie Archer President, LWVWV (304) 610-9094
