The League Bulletin is published each Friday when the General Assembly is in session and monthly, on the first Friday of each month, when legislators are not meeting to actively consider legislation. It provides a wide array of information to League members, with a focus on advocacy-related topics and policy proposals crucial to municipalities’ ability to exercise control over their futures. The Bulletin is all about empowering League members with more knowledge to improve the political positioning and influence of cities and towns. ​
