The League of Women Voters of New York State has joined the Empire State Future coalition, becoming the 25th organization to come together in support of our Smart Growth agenda for the Empire State.
Since 1920 the League has operated as a nonpartisan political 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. There are Leagues in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands and Hong Kong, in addition to hundreds of local Leagues nationwide.
"The League is excited about this new partnership and looks forward to working with the Empire State Future coalition," said Martha C. Kennedy writing on behalf of the state league organization.
