League of Women Voters Transportation, Land Use and Housing Committee Meeting

For more than 90 years, the national League of Women Voters has been helping people become informed voters and better citizens. The League has done so by providing education about candidates and issues, and by encouraging people to become more involved with their government at all levels, and not only at election time.

The League of Women Voters of Marin County is particularly involved with Marin government and local issues. Members of LWVMC attend meetings of the water districts, the healthcare district, and the College of Marin board, as well as the various meetings of city and county governments. Members also serve on citizen's oversight committees of several governmental agencies.

 In Marin County, the League provides services to voters, including voter registration, sponsoring candidate and issues debates, and performing impartial analyses of ballot measures. It also fights for fair campaigns.
