Our Policies

Two overarching policies guide our work: our nonpartisan policy and our DEI policy. You can also find various board policies below.

Nonpartisan Policy

The League is nonpartisan in that it does not support or oppose any political party or candidate for public office. It is political in that it promotes League-supported public policy issues.

DEI Policy

We have adopted the National League of Women Voters policy. LWV is an organization fully committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion in principle and in practice. Diversity, equity, and inclusion are central to the organization’s current and future success in engaging all individuals, households, communities, and policy makers in creating a more perfect democracy.

Our Positions

In the League of Women Voters, positions are adopted at the national, state, and local levels. Positions are developed by study and then adopted by consensus. Positions allow us to advocate and take action.

Positions

These are the Positions in Brief adopted by the League of Women Voters of Snohomish County that describe how we support the work we do. Full positions can be found in the Member documents. We also inherit all positions from the national and state Leagues.
