League of Women Voters of the United States in the News…
On April 17, 2025, the League of Women Voters of the United States issued this statement:
"It has now been 87 days since the start of the Trump administration. From the flagrant disregard for congressional authority and governmental checks and balances to defying Supreme Court orders to bring Kilmar Abrego Garcia back home, one thing is abundantly clear: our country is in a constitutional crisis."
The LWVUS declaration was then highlighted in this April 18 PBS News report clip with New York Times columnist David Brooks and Washington Post associate editor Jonathan Capehart joining host William Brangham in which Capehart noted, "I am glad you read that, because I was shaking, I was nodding in agreement with the League of Women Voters."
In addition, on April 9, LWVUS joined a statement opposing the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) plan to eliminate air quality standards for smog, soot, and mercury, and limits on carbon pollution and coal waste.
