As part of our Public Policy Series, UNA is committed to providing information and tools for informed decision making. This election year, we are asked to vote on retaining or not retaining judges in the counties we live in. The Judicial Performance Evaluation Commission (JPEC) collects information on each judge's performance so voters can make informed decisions at the polls. Don't head to the polls uninformed - click here to learn about judges in your area.

To help you connect,
