    The Chicago Voter League of Women Voters of Chicago, 332 S Michigan, Suite 634 August 2017 Website - www.LWVChicago.org Vol. 68 No. 2 President’s Message Dear Members, We just completed our board planning meeting for 2017-2018, and we have a lot of great ideas. We’re looking forward to a year with more units in more neighborhoods, a great schedule for Chicago in Focus and monthly briefings, and a task force working on the March 2018 primary election. See the schedules for Briefings and Chicago in Focus on pages 2 and 3 in this Chicago Voter. It’s all very exciting – and a lot of hard work, a little intimidating some days. Still, we’re up for that! One of the interesting aspects of being part of such an established organization is how the mode of the League changes from time to time. Sometimes, our role is to study. Other times, it is to take action. No matter what, we stick to our basic principles: we are non-partisan, we influence public policy through both education and advocacy, and we encourage active and informed citizen participation in government. The tactics may change, but the mission remains the same. And that brings me to one important note: things may change! Last summer, the board put together a great plan that was upended by the results of the 2016 presidential election. We now have many new and enthusiastic members, added programs in Chicago in Focus to look specifically at the election, and looked for new ways to make our voice heard.

The following spring, we celebrated Climate Justice Month with 30 days of online messages to guide and grow engagement on this issue.
