About Stating Official Positions of AAUW... Unless AAUW's support or opposition is explicitly noted in the writeup of a bill, AAUW does not have a position either for or against it at the time of the writeup. BECAUSE OF AMENDMENTS, AAUW'S POSITIONS MAY CHANGE. IT IS IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO KEEP UP TO DATE. CONTACT US. The status of bills changes daily. AAUW members are urged to support local, state and national measures that implement AAUW priorities. Members may choose not to support such measures, but they may not use the name of AAUW in public opposition to those measures. As individuals, AAUW members are encouraged to be active in the political and legislative process. Each branch president has a copy of USE OF NAME for members to review. |
