EMPOWERING VOTERS. DEFENDING DEMOCRACY.
Dec. 2, St. Paul & Washington D.C. -- League of Women Voters of Minnesota and U.S. Issue Joint Statement on ICE Deployment in the Twin Cities
"The League of Women Voters of Minnesota (LWVMN) condemns the decision to deploy US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents to our communities of Minneapolis and St. Paul. Minnesota’s immigrant communities are integral to the economic strength, social fabric, and cultural vibrancy of our state. Federal actions that create fear, fracture families, and erode trust in local institutions are unacceptable and fundamentally at odds with the values that sustain a healthy and functioning democracy."

LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS - SAINT PAUL
For over 100 years, the League of Women Voters has worked as a citizens' league to improve our government and engage all citizens in the decisions that impact their lives. The League of Women Voters - Saint Paul joins the efforts of 800 state and local leagues to bring nonpartisan political advocacy, education, and empowerment to the local level.
WHY LOCAL LEAGUES MATTER
Supporting your local League is essential to the success of our democracy at every level. As part of our work, we partner with LWV Minnesota and other local Leagues to coordinate events and educational debates, to register new voters, and much more. At the same time, we work at the local level to host candidate forums for St. Paul elections, to promote civic engagement in new voters with programs in area high schools, and to provide numerous opportunities to connect with others who are passionate about making democracy work.
Join the women and men who have been supporting democratic ideals since 1919.
