Upcoming Changes Tentative Effective Date February 1, 2025

Membership System for

National, State, and Local Leagues

What we know so far

In 2025, LWVUS will be implementing a new central membership system with the following goals:

• Expand and diversify membership by eliminating financial barriers to participation
• Adjust division of dues among national, state, and local chapters to increase funding of state-level leagues where most voting rights advocacy takes place
• Simplify the process of joining the League or renewing
• Streamline administrative efforts at all levels

   

   

  What does this mean to you?

   

• Currently our annual dues are $65. In 2025, we will be moving to a variable dues amount with a LWVUS recommended rate of $75 or you can remain at $65 or Pay What You Can.
• You will be able to set up auto-renewal of your membership through a link on our league website.
• You will still be able to donate directly to our local league on the Donation page of our website.

We will keep you posted with updates as soon as they become available.
