Fighting for a democracy that works for everyone.

What We Do

For over 20 years, we’ve led the charge for a more equitable and ethical Illinois government by addressing the role of money in politics, reducing public corruption, and empowering voters with fair, accessible elections.

We are a nonprofit, nonpartisan 501(c)3 that educates the public and advocates for reforms that transcend party lines and strengthen our democracy.  

Check out the results of our Chicago mayoral and city council candidate good government questionnaire!
