Phoenix, Ariz. — Arizona Capitol Oversight launched Wednesday with the goal of empowering everyday citizens to securely obtain and share records from government offices throughout the state.
The new organization aims to increase transparency and accountability in government by working with citizen investigators to expose corruption, cronyism, and other misdeeds involving elected officials at the state, county, and local level.
From executive agencies and city councils to universities and school boards, the records we obtain will shine a light on government waste and backroom deals — and allow everyday Arizonans to pursue a better and brighter future for our state.
