To advocate on behalf of its positions, the League of Women Voters of Ohio:

  • Uses an all-volunteer lobby corps to testify before the General Assembly's legislative committees and lobby other elected officials.

  • Issues Action Alerts to members who then lobby their legislators.

  • Writes letters and articles for the media.

  • Monitors the status of legislation and provides information to its members through twice-monthly email updates, lobbyists’ reports, Action Alerts and legislative updates.

  • Joins coalitions who share the same goals as the League.

  • Monitors implementation of legislation

  • Files amicus briefs to support legal cases.
