Yes. YPAL, through its Director of Public Issues, hosts various events throughout the course of the year to help raise awareness and educate the membership about the issues affecting Louisville and its citizens. Furthermore, the board annually surveys the overall membership in order to ensure that the organization is in touch with our membership’s views. If an issue is deemed important by a majority of our membership, the organization will actively advocate the membership’s view during legislative sessions.
Please note: YPAL does not endorse specific candidates for election or political parties.
