[edit] State projects

The nature of Sunshine Review is that almost any article in one of the big topic projects is specifically tied to a particular state. That being the case, it seemed wise to create state-specific project pages to enable people to coordinate their work who prefer to work on any and all articles that relate to a particular state.

[edit] Suggest more projects

I'd like to see California Special Districts added to the list of agencies that are part of the Transparency Project. Although many of these agencies serve fewer than 20,000 constituents, they are often the closest to the people in unincorporated communities. They are run by elected Boards and often provide essential services like water service, sewer, fire protection, trash service and others. For more on Special Districts in California see Sunshine Review:Requests for expansion

What else can ordinary people across the country do to pull together information to help each other assess and share information about local government transparency and accountability?
