GROUP COMMUNICATION

CVA Position Statement PolicyColorado Voters for Animals deals with many sensitive legislative and electoral issues in the course of campaigning for humane legislation and candidates. At no time should volunteers use personal opinion when speaking on behalf of CVA.

If a CVA position statement does not exist regarding specifi c legislation and/or candidates, a CVA volunteer should not address the question or lend personal opinion regarding the issue or candidate in question. The questions regarding that issue can be forwarded to the CVA president for clarifi cation.

Colorado Voters for Animals will periodically adopt position statements regarding current issues, legislation and/or candidates.

POLICIES

Non-Partisan Policy

CVA is nonpartisan in our advocacy; however, we are political in the sense that we seek to aff ect the outcome of legislation or policy. Our position on legislation and/or candidates is based on study and consensus by our board of directors. CVA’s cooperation with public offi cials shall not be determined by party affi liation, rather by position on specific legislation or rule.
