Preparation for the NYS League Convention - Review of Positions

  • Saratoga Springs United Methodist Church 175 5th Avenue Saratoga Springs, NY, 12866 United States (map)

Join us for a meeting to discuss whether we need new League positions.

LWV Saratoga supports issues that we have positions about. We can speak out using positions developed at the National, State or Local level. To add a new position or change an existing one we need to adopt a study, concurrence or update.

This meeting for all league members will discuss state or local issues we might want to add to our Agenda. If we want to add, delete, or change any of the NYS positions we need to decide now so that we can advocate for a study, concurrence or update at the LWVNY State Convention, June 7-9, in Albany. If we want to add, delete, or change any of our local positions we need to propose that in time for our annual meeting.

Positions on local issues can be found at: https://www.lwvsaratoga.org/studies/

LWVNY positions are found in Impact on Issues https://lwvnyonline.org/advocacy/impact/2018/Impact-on-Issues-2018F.pdf

LWVUS positions are found in Impact on Issues https://www.lwv.org/league-management/other-issues-tools/impact-issues-2016-2018-online-edition. We can’t change these positions until 2020.
