Lobbying

The LWVUS Volunteer Lobby Corps had a very active spring this year focusing on the For the People Act, the Voting Rights Advancement Act, and the Women's History commemorative coin program.

The League endorsed the Anti-Corruption and Public Integrity Act introduced by Senator Warren.

The League sent a letter to the U.S. Senate with other reform groups expressing support for the Lobbying and Campaign Finance Reform Act of 2015. This legislation, sponsored by Senator Michael Bennet (D-CO) would limit the ability of lobbyists to use bundled contributions to buy influence with members of Congress.

This morning, LWVUS Executive Director Nancy Tate stood with President Obama as he signed the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge (STOCK) Act into law.
