Public meetings on Cal-Access Replacement Project

[Gavin Baker]

Hi CA Civic Lab,

 

FYI: The California Secretary of State has announced two public meetings to solicit ideas on how to implement last year’s Senate Bill 1349, which directs the Secretary of State to modernize Cal-Access, the state’s online system for campaign finance and lobbying filing and disclosure.

 

The public meetings will be Feb. 3 in L.A. and Feb. 9 in Sacramento. You can also submit written comments. Details are below.

 

I hope that many of you will participate and share your ideas!

 

Best,

 

Gavin Baker
