LWV Illinois State Assembly
Friday, August 28 in Springfield
You’re invited to join local members heading to Springfield for the Illinois State Assembly 2026 on Friday, August 28 to prepare for the critical November 2026 election.
The event is scheduled from 10 a.m. – 2:30 p.m. in Springfield.
Discussions will surround election judge recruitment, poll watching, civic education, partnerships, and "League in the Lobby," a new suite of tabling resources to help spread election information and answer the questions that may otherwise keep eligible voters from confidently going to the polls.
Guest speakers include Matt Dietrich, Public Information Officer for the Illinois State Board of Elections, and Karl Goeke, President of the Illinois Education Association.
Join us in person for idea-sharing, networking and camaraderie.
If you cannot make it in person, there will be an option to watch a livestream of the programming.
Since a State Assembly is not a league convention, there will be no bylaws, budget, or elections. There will be a tour of the State Capitol and time to socialize.
If interested, please contact Diana Hauman ( info@lwvmclean.org) by Monday, August 24, about carpooling or, if there are enough interested in attending, renting a van.
Sign up to attend either in person and virtual.
