The League’s Voters Guide provides the official ballot language, a nontechnical explanation, and unbiased arguments “for” and “against” each of the ten proposed amendments to the Texas Constitution.  The Voters Guide also contains important information on voter photo ID requirements scheduled to take effect in 2012.

For 90 years the League has been agitating and educating for informed public participation in government and believes there is no more important form of participation than informed voting!
