Dear Reader,
This week we are participating in Sunshine Week, recognizing and uplifting the importance of transparency in government alongside allies in journalism, civic, education, government and beyond. But why exactly is an open government so important for everyone?
Imagine this: a few big spenders calling the shots while the rest of us watch from the sidelines. Sound unfair? That's because it is. When policies cater to the wealthy instead of the people, we all end up paying the price. Think about it—gaps between rich and poor widen, new ideas struggle to take off, and trust in our leaders takes a nosedive. It's not exactly the recipe for a thriving government, is it?
But here's the good news: we can change things. By supporting OpenSecrets, you can shine a light on the legal, yet shady, money exchanges and make sure our leaders are held accountable. Together, we can make sure everyone's voice gets heard and that our democracy works for all of us.
