About: |
The League of Women Voters of Seattle believes that sensible, responsible civil discourse and action based on substance rather than partisanship is essential for civic improvement and that we can help make democracy work through informed participation in government.
The League, while political, is non-partisan and does not support, rate, or endorse candidates. We do, however, sponsor free, non-partisan candidate debates, monthly public forums and ballot issues forums. We also advocate on issues such as education, transportation, land use, ethics and healthcare.
LWVS encourages informed and active participation in government, works to increase understanding of major public policy issues and influences public policy through education and advocacy.
