LWV of the Bozeman Area

About Us: What We Do, Who We Are, Where We Stand, Our By-Laws

The League of Women Voters of the Bozeman Area has a number of voter service projects that we participate in. These include

• Voter Registration Drives


• Candidate Forums,


• Voter Guide--information about candidates in their own words


• Report on Legislators--a list of legislation introduced and sponsored by local state legislators, and


• Guide to Government for citizens--listing of elected officials, contact information, meeting dates, etc.

Join the League of Women Voters

The League of Women Voters does not endorse candidates and is not affiliated with any political party. We encourage informed and active participation in government, we work to increase understanding of major public policy issues, and we work to influence public policy through education and advocacy.

Membership in the League of Women Voters is open to men and women of all ages. When you join the LWV-Bozeman, you also belong to the LWV-Montana and the LWVUS.

Locally, the Bozeman League publishes the Citizen's Guide to Government which lists Bozeman and Gallatin County officials and committees along with their contact information; publishes a Voter's Guide which offers information about the candidates in their own words; registers voters; and holds public candidate forums before elections. Aside from "election work" we look at and advocate for issues that members have studied and agreed upon. Many of our issues are the basis for fair and democratic government practices.

The Bozeman League meets at 11:45 on the 2nd and 4th Mondays of each month from September through May. Programs are typically on a local, state or national topic of concern to League members. Some past topics included: the Affordable Care Act, coal trains going through Bozeman and a legislative wrap-up after the conclusion of the legislative session.
