LWV of Milwaukee County is a nonpartisan, grassroots organization that encourages informed and active participation in government,
works to increase understanding of major public policy issues, and influences public policy through education and advocacy.



 

HomeOur Work

Our work is accomplished by active committees led by LWVMC members and focuses on:

 

Voter Services/Citizen Education

We present unbiased nonpartisan information about elections, the voting process, and issues.


Action/Advocacy

We are nonpartisan, but, after study, we use our positions to advocate for or against particular policies in the public interest.

 

Many of the committees listed here are also actively seeking volunteers. Visit our Volunteer page to learn more and to get involved.

REGISTER AND INFORM VOTERS:
Nine dynamic teams provide voter education, registration and voting information to individuals, organizations and community institutions including but not limited to: schools, libraries, Naturalization ceremonies, Latinx voter outreach, senior and other institutions with a focus on reaching and engaging with those groups underrepresented in the voting population, and those groups facing barriers to voter registration and voting. These teams provide voter education and dissemination of information to the general public through voter registration drives, voter and election resources including training, printed materials and social media, candidate forums and Voter Guides (VOTE411).
