LWVMI Statements of Position (2009-2011)

The statements of Position are a summary of all LWVMI positions (arrived at by member consensus and concurrence procedures) on state governmental issues. Along with the national positions (see the LWVUS website, www.lwv.org, and look in "ISSUES"), these are the basis for LWV action taken within Michigan. Local Leagues may have additional positions for local action. For more information contact the president@lwvmi.org
