League Of Women Voters Invites Public To Meeting On Possible NY Constitutional Convention

Should NY have a Constitutional Convention?

Monday, Jan. 23, 2017 6:15 pm. New York’s current constitution requires that the question “Shall there be a convention to revise the constitution and amend the same?” be put to the voters of this state every 20 years. 2017 is the year that that question will appear on the general election ballot. Should LWVNY take a position for or against? Why? On January 23 our League will meet to hear the pros and cons of a “Con Con.” Laura Ladd Bierman, Executive Director of LWVNYS and Jennifer Wilson, Program and Policy Director of LWVNYS, will be our speakers. Light refreshments will be served. MEETING PLACE:  Community Room of the Adirondack Trust Office Building. 35 Church Street, Saratoga Springs.  BUT you have to enter from the top floor of the City parking garage that is located on the corner of Woodlawn and Walton.  (The entry to the upper deck is from Walton).   In other words:  Enter the building from the top level of the parking garage across from the Criterion Bowtie Movie Theater on Church Street.
