LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS OF ORANGE COUNTY ACTION AND STUDY PROGRAM 2010-2011

The Program of the League of Women Voters of Orange County consists of action to implement general League principles, and action and study on governmental issues chosen by the membership. Its particular focus is government activities at the county level. The LWVOCILO was formed in 1966 and has adopted the following positions on government issues of specific concern to Orange County. These positions were developed by member study of an issue on a countywide basis, and by adoption by the LWVOCILO of a position statement developed by one or more member local Leagues.
