Local League Presidents, State Board, League Friends:
Attached is the November newsletter from the Huntington League of Women Voters. Enjoy!

League members,
It is exciting to share that Judy Ball, President of the League of Women
Voters of Morgantown-Monongalia County, is serving on the Federal
Judiciary Study Committee! This is a fantastic opportunity to learn
about and contribute to a League study from its earliest stages by
joining the Federal Judiciary Study Kickoff!
League studies like this are increasingly rare, often replaced by
Consensus studies due to the historically lengthy process involved.
However, this study is intentionally designed with a shortened time
frame, aiming to establish a final position by June 2025. This makes it
a unique chance to have your voice heard and to influence League work on
this important topic.
I encourage all members to participate in the webinar [1] on November 20
at 6 pm ET or register [1] to stay updated on the study materials and
timeline. Engaging early ensures you're part of shaping this critical
initiative, showcasing the power of the League in addressing pressing
issues.
Let's support Judy and the entire Committee in this significant effort!
Best, Jonathan

Dear Jonathan,
At the 2024 LWVUS Convention, Leagues overwhelmingly agreed to conduct a
new national study on the Federal Judiciary. The study will be completed
in a shortened time frame -- conducted in just one year, with the final
position set to be announced at LWVUS Council in June 2025.
I am happy to report that the work on this study has commenced. A
Committee has been appointed and will be led by Kimberley Fraser (DC),
LWVEF trustee. The Committee also includes Helen Hutchison (CA), Cecile
Scoon (FL), Judy Ball (WV), Joan Hunault (MI), Susan Hart (TX), and Nan
Shuker (DC).
The Committee will provide members with an overview of the study
timeline, scope, and materials during a webinar [4] on November 20,
2024, at 6pm ET. Please join us to hear more from the Committee chair
and vice-chair and find out how you can be part of this LWVUS study.
REGISTER NOW: FEDERAL JUDICIARY STUDY KICKOFF [5]
Even if you cannot attend the webinar, registering will ensure you
receive any materials shared.
We look forward to continuing to work together to successfully execute
this study.
In League,
Dianna Wynn
President, League of Women Voters of the US
