LWVCC Recounts an Active Year at the 2019 Annual Meeting and Hears from Cook County Assessor Fritz Kaegi 

On May 13th the delegates and members from all 13 Leagues within Cook County heard what the Cook County League has been doing over the past year and then elected new leaders and approved a new budget and program for 2019-2020.  The program can be found here and the new budget here.  The budget features a PMP holiday for local Leagues as a result of the healthy balance that the Cook County League has in its Operating Account.  To read some of the reports from the Committees and Interest Groups click on the underlined names below:
