[ Falcon Heights - Lauderdale - Little Canada - Maplewood - Roseville ]

Here are the ​Links to the Local Government Meetings Agendas for Falcon Heights, Lauderdale, Little Canada, Maplewood and Roseville:

Justice─a powerful and important concept. The word seems straightforward enough, but just try to get three people to agree on what is just in a particular case! Pinning it down can be elusive. Justice means different things to different people, in different eras, in different cultures, by class, by race, by religion….  

What we think of as just may reflect what we think about the structure of our society, but also how we think about human frailty, about personal and societal responsibility, about how to measure harm, about consequences and their functions. 

In this latest issue of the Council of Metropolitan Area Leagues (CMAL) newsletter find information on the upcoming quarterly meeting being held January 13, reporting on the CMAL Watershed Study thus far; information on the Metropolitan Governance Task Force study thus far, plus more.

The League of Women Voters Minnesota is so grateful to the excellent tribute shared by the Editorial Board of the Star Tribune. Our members are vital to our democracy, and we appreciate the great work our LWV teams continue to do to educate and engage our voters, even during local elections. Take a minute to read this Thank You to YOU - as our members and supporters! 

This month I want each of us to create our own content by trying a couple of thought experiments.

It will be easiest to do these when you have some quiet moments. Some may want paper and pencil, but they are not required. Don’t judge yourself, just observe carefully. Try not to anticipate or predict; just observe.

Sit quietly. Close your eyes, if that helps you to focus.
