PRIVATIZATION OF GOVERNMENT SERVICES: Are you interested in this issue?
The National League (LWVUS) is gearing up for a study and consensus, and our local League will be participating with discussions in March.
We are a grassroots organization and what we have to say in our local unit meetings counts!
But no need to wait for March to start your own study of the issue!
Christ Church Cathedral has scheduled a Community Forum on the topic for Thursday, February 9 - click here for more information.
