CALL TO ACTION
URGENT ACTION NEEDED TODAY!
Leaguers-
LWVIL and its coalition partners have informed LWVGR that Governor Pritzker will likely make his decision on federal school vouchers right after Election Day. It’s imperative we present a united front and call his office as soon as possible.
217-782-0244 Constituent Affairs Help Line or his Springfield office 217-782-6830.

Tell his office:
“I’m a supporter of public schools and I’m calling to oppose the harmful federal school voucher program. They fund discrimination and hurt education equity. Im asking the governor to opt Illinois out.
Thank you. “

SAVE THE DATE: Honoring Gloria Steinem and Robin Morgan by telling our stories.

“When we tell our stories, we are not alone.” -Gloria Steinem

Join the National Women’s History Alliance for a special gathering honoring Gloria Steinem and Robin Morgan and the lasting impact of their work on the women’s movement.

Come together in community to reflect on what these remarkable women have meant to you, how their words and work have influenced your life, and the moments of awareness, those powerful “click” moments, that changed your perspective.

Whether you have a personal connection to their work, a story to share, or simply wish to listen, all are welcome. Through shared reflections, personal stories, and readings from their writings, we will celebrate their legacies and help preserve an important chapter of women’s history.

Registration is FREE but required: https://zoom.us/j/94382151230?pwd=IrWeAWse7WDmaRJTGfkJZiON47hgYE.1&jst=2

The session will be recorded and released to those who register.
Monday, October 26: 4 pm PT, 6pm CT, 7pm ET.
