League of Women Voters of Greater Los Angeles

League of Women Voters of Greater Los Angeles The LWVGLA is a nonpartisan political organization. We engage, educate and empower Los Angeles communities. Be an informed voter! Join the movement!

This year marks the 100th anniversary of women achieving suffrage in California, nine years before the United States Congress passed the 19th Amendment to the Constitution granting all women the right to vote. Officially formed more than 90 years ago, yet dating back to its efforts decades earlier, the League of Women Voters is a highly trusted grassroots, nonpartisan political organization, educating millions of people to become informed and active participants in government.

After nine months of research, the Charter Reform Commission passed along more than 60 recommendations to City Council -- for example, expanding the number of council districts, strengthening the independence of the Ethics Commission, clarifying the role of neighborhood councils, and addressing police accountability.
The Rules Committee deliberated and handed final Charter amendments to the City Attorney's office to write the official ballot measure language. LWVGLA Board will decide which measures to support, oppose, or take no position. Presented by Chris Carson and Carolina Goodman. You can watch it here: https://youtu.be/Z5lfTpFddQE

250 years of democracy. And we're at a crossroads.

Voting rights are under attack across the nation. Communities are being silenced. But we're not backing down.

The 2026 midterm elections will shape the next decade. That's why we're marching into midterms with everything we've got.

Your support powers nonpartisan voter education, registration drives, and the fight to protect everyone's freedom to vote.
