Week of Action to Reinstate the VRA
On June 25, 2013, the voting rights community endured a devastating blow when portions of the Voting Rights Act (VRA) were gutted. As we approach the six-year anniversary of the Shelby Co. v. Holder decision, we encourage all League members and supporters to join us in a week of action (June 25 to 30) to stress the importance of reinstating the VRA. More information...

We Are Celebrating...
...the dual centennials of women's suffrage in the United States and the founding of the League of Women Voters. Our Centennial Committee is hard at work researching the history of women's suffrage in our country, state, and county. Look for the results of that research on our website, and in our newsletters and our Magazine on the Air radio programs. And watch for LWVSC members in period costumes during the Edmonds Fourth of July parade!
