Civic Participation Links
Public Citizen From the Public Citizen web page:
"We stand up for you against thousands of special interest
lobbyists in Washington -- well-heeled agents for drug
companies, the automakers, big energy interests, and the
like. Our budget is small ... But Public Citizen
is respected and effective, precisely because we accept no
government or corporate support."
Congressional Observer Publications From the COP web page:
"Politics ought to be the part-time profession of every citizen who would protect the rights and privileges of free people and who would proserve what is good and fruitful in our national heritage." - Dwight Eisenhower, 1954
"...if we are to guard against ignorance and remain free, it is the responsibility of every American to be informed," - Thomas Jefferson
Government Information Sharing Project
This is a collection of economic and demographic data links put together by Oregon State University
Non-Profit Advocacy - Best Practices
"We are often asked for examples of advocacy on the Internet.
As part of our
exploration into "best practices" of nonprofit use of communications,
we have
begun compiling a list of nonprofit advocacy organizations that make
particularly
good use of the Internet in their activities. These sites:
- invite the reader to ACT; and
- make appropriate use of technology to help them do so."
