EDUCATION FUND BENEFIT • Missed the event?
The LWVE board shares the sorrow and anger over George Floyd’s murder and recent incidents that have laid bare, again, the prevalence of racist violence, injustice, and inequity in our country. With deepened resolve, we will continue to protect voting rights and encourage voter turnout, especially in the context of the coronavirus pandemic. We are committed to working together with our members and partners to promote justice and equity in Evanston/Skokie and beyond.
The General Election is November 3, 2020.
Illinoisans will be asked to vote on a Constitutional Amendment to change our state income tax from a flat tax to a graduated rate tax.
