Newsletters and ListServes from LWV California
e-Newsletters and Action Alerts
There are many communications, so we encourage you to browse topics: LWVC News, SmartVoter.org News, Easy Voter Guide News, Action Alerts to get you engaged in advocacy, and more! You manage your subscriptions yourself via the communications center. Questions, comments, or submissions: contact the state office.
NOTE: The LWVC News is the monthly electronic newsletter sent from the League of Women Voters of California via email to approx. 12,000 subscribers. The audience for this newsletter includes both League members and non League members throughout California. This newsletter is released at the beginning of every month.
Calls to Action
In addition to individual members and supporters, our grassroot network also taps into each local League to make public statements and contact elected officials with formal statements. This means each local League President and Action/Advocacy Chair across the state receives a "Call to Action" email to contact their local official on an issue vital to our entire state. Subscriptions are based upon the Local League Information Form submitted each June to the state office. Contact the state office if you have questions, comments or subscription changes.
