The League is known primarily for encouraging voter participation. This includes a commitment to providing fact-based information so voters can make informed decisions. New groups organizing to become a local League may register voters, conduct candidate forums, distribute state Voters Guides, and publish local guides to elected officials. They may also host public issues forums in order to present various viewpoints on topics (e.g., recycling or health care), or ballot issues impacting their communities.

Nonpartisanship means that the League of Women Voters does not support or oppose any political parties or candidates. Today, this policy continues to ensure that the League’s voice is heard above the tumult of party politics.

To ensure the credibility of the League as a nonpartisan organization, each League’s board of directors is responsible for drafting and carrying out its own nonpartisan policy and for seeing that both its members and the public understand the League’s nonpartisan role.

The League does take action on issues which it has studied and on which it has a position. The League is a multi-issue organization, with positions falling into the general areas of government, social policy, natural resources, and international relations.
