Observer Corps
What We DoWe attend and observe local government meetings. We ensure there is transparency and a public record of those meetings. We make our reports available to League members and the public so they can better engage their local government and advocate for the issues that matter to them.

Why It MattersThe League has been a champion of government transparency since our founding in 1920. Decisions that determine how our schools will be run, at what level community safety programs will be funded, and how land in our towns will be used impact our lives and are vital to our well-being. These kinds of decisions need to be made with public input and oversight. One important way to ensure that is to observe government meetings.
