October Lunch & Learn

October 11, 2022 
11:30 to 1:00 pm (virtual)

For over 100 years the mission of the League of Women Voters has been to educate and empower voters. We work to protect voting rights and ensure that all voters have equal opportunity to exercise the right to vote. This online meeting will focus on the challenges to vote confronting college students and people with disabilities in our area. Learn about the League’s current partnership with the jail. Together we will work to ensure that all eligible voters have the opportunity to let their voices be heard at the ballot box. Join with the LWV La Crosse Area as we reach out to the community to encourage that “Everyone Vote”.

Participants may enter through the front entrance. It is suggested that participants may wish to park in the Friendship Gardens parking lot in back of the apartments,

What's On The Ballot
Whats 10-4-22
Voters vote for the Governor and Lt. Governor together.
The governor and the lieutenant governor are responsible for ensuring that the governor’s agenda and priorities are implemented across the state government. Who the governor appoints to lead state agencies makes a difference in what governmental programs are prioritized. Similarly, how the governor allocates funds determines how many resources state agencies have to complete their work. This affects the services the people of Wisconsin are able to access across the state.
The governor also has the ability to sign or veto legislation. This provides an important check and balance between the executive branch and the legislature.
