"Local government entities across the state spend millions of taxpayer dollars every legislative session hiring lobbyists – unbeknownst to the taxpayers footing the bill – to advocate for and against reforms in the legislature. While some municipalities bury the contracts for such services deep within some nebulous online archive, some don’t even go that far, meaning that taxpayers for many local governments across the state have no idea what kind of policy positions they are forced to fund advocacy efforts for – or how much of their money is spent on these efforts."
Let the sun shine on these activities so that citizens can stop these activities.
