The LWV/ABC discussed their annual report and 2016-2017 activities at their Annual Meeting on May 1, 2017. If you were not able to attend, click here to review the annual report. Questions or comments can be sent to Dianne at president@lwvabcwi.org.
The LWV/ABC is hosting two upcoming events to initiate discussion on the influence of "big money" on Wisconsin policy and elections, and the status of Wisconsin's political climate.
On March 23, the league study group is offering a book discussion at the Washburn Library. Two books will be discussed: Dark Money by Jane Mayer; and The Politics of Resentment by Katherine Cramer. Both books are available at local bookstores or can be ordered through the Northern Waters Library System.
Matt Rothschild, Executive Director of the Wisconsin Democracy Campaign
The following week, on March 30, the LWV/ABC is sponsoring Matt Rothschild, the Director of the Wisconsin Democracy Campaign. He will be addressing the influence of “big money” on Wisconsin policy and elections. Any reform movement to restore balance between the 1% and the 99% will require a courageous campaign to enact sensible limitations on how much individuals and groups can “buy” influence. Rothschild's group is spearheading this effort, often in collaboration with the League of Women Voters of Wisconsin.
Please join us for one or both of these important discussions. Visit our Calendar for more details of when and where you can join us.
The League of Women Voters of Ashland and Bayfield Counties is a nonpartisan political organization whose main objective is to promote political responsibility through the informed and active participation of all citizens in government at all levels, especially locally. Making Democracy Work!
