The newly established ad hoc Advocacy Task Force met on May 8. This group currently consists of members from three different leagues - St Paul, Roseville Area, and White Bear Lake Area.

Our goal is to develop effective LWV actions that defend democracy against recent actions proposed and taken by Congress and the Executive branch of the Federal government.

In alignment with policy positions stated by LWVUS and LWVMN, we are creating resources to be shared through LWVMN with all local leagues. Defending Medicaid funding from possible cuts is one of our highest current priorities. The images here are posters that have been created by members of the task force and are available for download at the Take Action page of the State League website. You can download, print, and distribute them as you see fit.
