LWV of Columbia-Boone County Civil Liberties Committee

Purpose

The Defense of Liberties Task Force was established in 2004 in keeping with LWVUS motion 028. We "focus on the urgent need to defend civil liberties by making the League's position on civil liberties and citizens' right to know the highest priorities for education and advocacy."

The title of this Task Force was changed to the Civil Liberties Committee at a Task Force meeting in Feburary 2007.

The committee currently meets at 1:15 p.m. on the 2nd Thursday of each month at the Columbia Public Library.

Why are there ads? Why is the background color for this page different?

In order to make it possible for more than one person to make updates to the calendar, Rachel has put this calendar onto a special online program called a "wiki." Wiki software normally costs money ($5 a month), but this wiki is free. In exchange for the free wiki, we tolerate ads and limited choices in colors, background, etc. If you have questions, contact Rachel Brekhus at brekhusr@gmail.com.
