The Justice Committee researches legislation on and local responses to three significant justice topics: Gun Safety, Immigration & Human Trafficking.

The League of Women Voters of Marin County is a member organization of the Marin Country Coalition to End Human Trafficking.

The Justice Committee researches legislation and members attend local speaking events and engage with local expertise in their chosen fields and share current perspectives on our topics. Our discussions are lively and educational and we welcome anyone who simply wants to learn more about these topics. The Justice Committee arranges monthly speaker presentations at its meetings and hosts Monthly Member Meetings a few times each year - Oct. 2021 Member Meeting recording is available at the link on the right.

The Justice Committee meets on the second Thursday of the month, 10-11:30 am. We are currently meeting by ZOOM during the county health COVID19 safety orders.

All League members and friends are welcome to attend the meetings. Please contact the chair, Nancy Weber, if you would like to attend a meeting.
