No. We are a nonpartisan membership organisation. We do not endorse candidates or parties, and we work with elected officials of every affiliation.
About 70 percent of our budget comes from individual donors, most giving under $30 a month. The rest comes from foundations. We accept no money from parties, candidates or corporations, and our full audited accounts are published every September.
Members do. Every spring we hold a two-week vote. Any member can propose an issue, and the six with the most support become the next year's agenda.
Yes. Every role comes with training and a buddy who has done it before. Most volunteers start with a single four-hour shift.
