Occasionally events are offered for our members. Two are available in the coming weeks;
For the past few weeks you have seen the "Road Ahead for Higher Education" conference listed in our calendar. This conference, co-sponsored by the Pat Brown Institute, the League of Women Voters of Los Angeles, and the Center for California Studies at Sac State, has been designed to support our League work to study the role of public post secondary education in California.
The opening panel will recap "The History of the Master Plan for Higher Education" followed by other distinguished panelist, including Dr. Louise Jaffe, League member and member of the LWVC higher ed study committee (also trustee at SMC), will be discussing "Where do we go from here?"
As of yesterday League members have been offered a discounted rate of $50.00 for the full day conference, including lunch. The location is Los Angeles Central Library, 630 W. 5th Street. Monday, June 29, 9:00 a.m.-4:00p.m. Make reservations using the Promo Code HIGHERED50 to receive the members only rate.

We are excited to announce that the LWVC is now a member of the Make It Fair coalition, a California coalition dedicated to closing the commercial property tax loophole created by Proposition 13. This is an issue the League has been working on for years We are planning a webinar for League members to introduce the coalition and talk about how local Leagues and League members can support the campaign. The webinar will be held twice on July 9, at 1:00p.m. and again at 7:00p.m. Registration information soon to follow.
