The League of Women Voters is a nonpartisan political organization encouraging informed and active participation in government. It influences public policy through education and advocacy.
The League of Women Voters of California’s recommendations on the propositions appearing on the November 3, 2026 ballot can be found here. We base our recommendations on League positions developed through study and member consensus, and the LWVC Board of Directors carefully reviews each measure before taking a position.
Come to a presentation of the Santa Cruz League of Women Voters. We will discuss pros and cons and other information about the propositions. Scroll down to see locations and dates.
Our award-winning voting and election resource, VOTE411.org , provides reliable, nonpartisan information in both English and Spanish, including candidates guides, voter registration and verification, details about your unique ballot, and how to cast your ballot in California. For over a decade, the LWVC Education Fund has provided millions of Californians with reliable ballot information through an online ballot planning tool, so they have what they need to use their power and vote.
The SAVE America Act is a voter suppression and voter purge bill. Congress continues to introduce bills that would require voters to present documentary proof of citizenship (DPOC) to register and/or vote. It is already illegal for noncitizens to register and vote in federal or state elections. Requiring documentary proof of American citizenship to register to vote in federal elections is unnecessary and seeks to divide us. It simply creates another barrier to voting.
Celina Stewart, Esq., Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the League of Women Voters, US Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), US Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA), Ranking Member of the Senate Committee on Rules and Administration, US Representative Joe Morelle (NY-25), Ranking Member of the House Administration Committee, and voting rights advocates held a press conference rejecting the SAVE America Act , an extreme voter suppression bill debated in the Senate. The push to pass the anti-voter legislation follows President Trump’s threat to stop signing legislation until its passage.
