League of Women Voters of Billings
The League of Women Voters of Billings serves the people of south-central Montana.
Throughout the year, the League of Women Voters of Billings registers voters at naturalization ceremonies, community events, through the high schools to reach newly eligible voters, and conducts widespread voter registration drives on National Voter Registration Day, which is always the fourth Tuesday of every September. Public education continues with monthly presentations, and when needed, candidate forums and voter guides are formed. League members are observers at city and county meetings and collaborate with other local organizations on efforts such as the Billings Energy & Conservation Commission. The League of Women Voters of Billings participates with the national and state League advocacy programs.
In 2020, the League of Women Voters of Billings approved funding a yearly scholarship at MSUB for an incoming Latinx student. The LWVB Board and membership felt that this was a good opportunity for the League to fulfill the League’s Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Initiative. It is our hope that this also provides the League the opportunity to mentor a new generation of youth in civic duty.
