Sunshine is a League Priority - Sunshine refers to observing and engaging in your local units of government. The League of Women Voters has been an active champion of openness in government throughout its history. The organization's principles include the requisite that "government bodies protect the citizen's right to know by giving adequate notice of proposed actions, holding open meetings and making public records accessible." Over the years, the League has supported various federal, state and local initiatives to expand open government requirements and has fought against proposals aimed at limiting access to public information.

In addition to in-person attendance, most government agencies now live-stream public meetings and have videos available for the public to watch at their convenience. Below is a list of helpful links to help you start shining some sun in your neighborhood:
