Beginning on Ash Wednesday in 2025, clergy and moral leaders, like Dr. William Barber II, stood on the steps of the U.S. Supreme Court to insist that we must meet the brutality of the present regime with the nonviolent power of a moral movement. Opposition to abuses and extreme policies that will impact nearly everyone in this nation is inevitable; but autocratic regimes want violent and angry opposition that allows them to justify tanks in the street and protestors in jail.

Join us for a dynamic conversation exploring how power is shaped, checked, and challenged in a healthy democracy. This panel brings together leaders from law, government oversight, and the arts to examine how institutions and individuals hold authority to account.

• Justice Richard Gabriel, Colorado Supreme Court
Justice Gabriel offers a front-row view of how judicial decisions uphold constitutional principles, protect individual rights, and serve as a critical check within our system of separated powers.

• Donald K. Sherman, Executive Director & Chief Counsel, Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW)
A national expert on government ethics, corruption, and accountability, Sherman brings deep insight into how watchdog organizations confront abuses of power and defend democratic norms at the federal level.

• Ravi Zupa, Artist & Cultural Commentator
Through provocative, cross-disciplinary work, Zupa explores themes of authority, resistance, and civic responsibility. His artistic perspective adds a crucial dimension to how culture can reveal — and rebalance — power.

Together, they will examine how legal, civic, and creative forces shape our shared understanding of power in a democracy — and what it means to safeguard it.

The League of Women Voters commemorates National Religious Freedom Day on January 16, the day in 1786 that the Virginia General Assembly‘s adopted of Thomas Jefferson‘s landmark Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom.

This statute was shepherded through the Virginia Legislature by James Madison and became the basis for the establishment clause of the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, leading to freedom of religion for all Americans.

Jefferson and other leaders of the founding generation knew that the kinds of theocrats and monarchists they’d defeated in the 18th century would be back someday. Jefferson, seeking to inoculate the Virginia Statute against false interpretations in the future, late in his life wrote that the religious freedom of the Virginia Statute was not for Christians alone, but that it encompassed “the Jew and the Gentile, the Christian and Mahometan, the Hindoo, and infidel of every denomination.”

This suggests that freedom of religion was not intended to be the imposition of a certain religion‘s beliefs on all Americans nor a way to be exempt from equal rights and anti-discrimination measures.

Jefferson’s clarification reminds us why it’s essential that we not let the historical revisionists twist the meaning of the First Amendment to serve their purposes. We cannot cede the definition of religious freedom and the narrative of our history to revisionists. As Thomas Jefferson so clearly articulated, religious freedom means freedom for people of all faiths and people of none.

Our statewide Town Hall invites Coloradans into an open conversation about democratic resilience and what strengthens it, what threatens it, and how communities can respond together. Rather than formal presentations, this session centers community experience, cross-issue insight, and shared problem-solving.

Chairs and members from LWVCO’s ten Task Forces will help guide this conversation, drawing from their work in voting rights, climate, news access, gun violence prevention, health equity, reproductive freedom, housing, education, and justice. Participants will explore what democratic resilience requires across Colorado’s diverse communities and how collective action can build a stronger civic landscape.

Together, we will elevate community wisdom and identify strategies for meeting the moment, and protecting democracy where it lives: with the people.

Womens Equal Pay Day is the date that symbolizes how far into the year women in the U.S. must work to earn what men earned in the previous year. Each year, this symbolic day is used to raise awareness around and combat the impact of pay inequities.

Because women earn less, on average, than men, they must work longer for the same amount of pay. The wage gap is even greater for most women of color. Starting in 2022, data now includes part-time, seasonal, and gig workers, many of whom are essential workers piecing together multiple part-time jobs to get by.

Equal Pay Day 2025 is on March 25 and marks the current state of the gender pay gap for women: 83% for full-time, year-round workers and 75% for all workers (including part-time and seasonal).

We honor Harriet Tubman‘s contributions to freedom and our society in March. Her exact birth date is not known.

Quote from a proclamation:

Whereas Harriet Ross Tubman was born into slavery in Bucktown, Maryland, in or around the year 1820;
Whereas she escaped slavery in 1849 and became a “conductor” on the Underground Railroad;

Whereas she undertook a reported nineteen trips as a conductor, endeavoring despite great hardship and great danger to lead hundreds of slaves to freedom;

Whereas Harriet Tubman became an eloquent and effective speaker on behalf of the movement to abolish slavery;

Whereas she served in the Civil War as a soldier, spy, nurse, scout, and cook, and as a leader in working with newly freed slaves;

Whereas after the War, she continued to fight for human dignity, human rights, opportunity, and justice"

The fight continues for human dignity, human rights, opportunity, and justice and we must continue to answer the call.

Asian American Native Hawaiian Pacific Islander Women’s Equal Pay Day is the day that Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) women in the U.S. must work until before they earn the equivalent of what men were paid the previous year.

Each year, this symbolic day is used to raise awareness around and combat the impact of pay inequities. Because women earn less, on average, than men, they must work longer for the same amount of pay.

The wage gap is even greater for most women of color. Starting in 2022, data now includes part-time, seasonal, and gig workers, many of whom are essential workers piecing together multiple part-time jobs to get by.

AANHPI Equal Pay Day 2025 is on April 7 and marks the current state of the gender pay gap for these women. For Asian American women:, 94% for full-time, year-round workers and 83% for all workers (including part-time and seasonal). For Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (NHPI) women: 65% for full-time, year-round workers and 61% for all workers (including part-time and seasonal).

In the United States, Law Day recognizes the role of law in the foundation of our country and to recognize its importance for society.

Law Day has been criticized as being intended to reduce the influence of May Day (or International Workers‘ Day), a holiday that originated with a general strike on May 1, 1886 in the campaign for the eight-hour day in the United States, which culminated in the Haymarket affair in Chicago. The intent the holiday to reduce worker influence was explicitly noted by President Donald Trump during his 2025 Law Day proclamation.

It became an international day in support of American workers who were being subjected to brutal violence and judicial punishment.

The League of Women Voters commemorates the anniversary of the Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, KS et al U.S. Supreme Court decision on May 17, 1954.

According to a 2024 Associated Press investigative report, American schools have been re-segregating for decades. The country is more diverse than it ever has been, with students more exposed to classmates from different backgrounds. Still, around 4 out of 10 Black and Hispanic students attend schools where almost every one of their classmates is another student of color.

The intense segregation by race is linked to socioeconomic conditions: Schools where students of color compose more than 90% of the student body are five times more likely to be located in low-income areas. That in turn has resounding academic consequences: Students who attend high-poverty schools, regardless of their family’s finances, have worse educational outcomes.

Efforts to slow or reverse the increasing separation of American schools have stalled. Court cases slowly have chipped away at the dream outlined in the case of Brown v. Board, leaving fewer and fewer tools in the hands of districts to integrate schools by the early 2000s.

“School integration exists as little more than an idea in America right now, a little more than a memory,” said Derek Black, a law professor at the University of Southern California. “It’s actually an idea that a pretty good majority of Americans think is a good idea. But that’s all.”

Join the League of Women Voters as we celebrate the 32nd anniversary of the National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) - also known as the Motor Voter Act - enacted on May 20, 1993.

The law resulted in voter registration being offered to any eligible person who applies for or renews a driver‘s license or applies for public assistance. It also requires the United States Postal Service to mail election materials of a state as if the state is a nonprofit.

The League of Women Voters was instrumental in getting the NVRA passed. Read more about League‘s role:
https://www.lwv.org/newsroom/press-releases/league-women-voters-marks-30th-anniversary-nvra

This landmark legislation has allowed millions of people to register to vote — and the League of Women Voters is a major part of that. In the 1980s and 90s, LWV led the campaign for the NVRA‘s passage. When it was finally signed into law, President Bill Clinton gave the League of Women Voters the pen he used to sign it into law, calling the League "fighters for freedom."

We believe registering and voting is the best way for each of us to decide what happens in our country. The League of Women Voters also registers voters at many events during each year.

Join the League and help us with our mission to register and inform voters.

Because women earn less, on average, than men, they must work longer for the same amount of pay. The wage gap is even greater for most women of color. Starting in 2022, data now includes part-time, seasonal, and gig workers, many of whom are essential workers piecing together multiple part-time jobs to get by.

According to the Department of Justice, American Indian and Alaska Native women are missing and murdered at a rate of more than 10 times the national average. Red Shawl Day is an annual national effort to bring attention to the horrible acts of violence committed against Indigenous people, particularly women and children. Throughout the week surrounding November 19, people are encouraged to wear red as a symbol of the loss of sacred lifeblood through violence.

The National Park Service is part of an all-of-government effort to bring attention and action to missing and murdered Indigenous people. America‘s national parks are part of and surrounded by many Indigenous communities. As part of this observance, you may see National Park Service staff wearing red shawls.
Ways to Help and Raise Awareness

Being aware and spreading awareness of this issue can save lives.
Report suspicious activities when visiting public lands to local law enforcement.
Wear a red shawl or red clothing the day and week of Red Shawl Day
Join the conversation on social media using #RedShawlDay and #NPSIndigenous.

The League of Women Voters honors Transgender Day of Remembrance on November 20.

In 2022 alone, at least 32 lives have been lost to violent transphobic acts. Each of them had names, each of them had stories.

Today we remember them.

Trans rights are human rights and the League of Women Voters supports justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion.

United Nations International Human Rights Day is the anniversary of one of the world‘s most groundbreaking global pledges: the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). This landmark document enshrines the inalienable rights that everyone is entitled to as a human being - regardless of race, colour, religion, sex, language, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status.

The Declaration was proclaimed by the United Nations General Assembly in Paris on 10 December 1948 and sets out, for the first time, fundamental human rights to be universally protected.
