Join the League of Women Voters of Berks County on BCTV as we discuss: “Women In Government.” Learn why Congress holds the power of the purse – your tax dollars at work! Learn how these Congresswomen use that power. Learn how you can give input. Learn how they work across the aisle in a very partisan Congress.
This BCTV program will air live on Tuesday, Feb. 4, from 9 p.m. to 10 p.m., as well as on Feb. 11, Feb. 18, and Feb. 25. Watch this show live or streaming on www.bctv.org.
