#615 Online: Windy Civi


Zoom @ 7pm

Hear from one of Chi Hack Night’s own breakout groups, Windy Civi, a tool to help you engage with the the legislation that impacts you.

You pay attention to politics during elections. But what about between elections? What bills are active? How can you stay engaged and informed?

If you are like most citizens, you find it very difficult to know what is actually happening at a local, state, and federal level of government.

Windy Civi is a Chi Hack Night breakout group with a focus to help citizens stay updated and engaged on active legislation. They recently released their open source app, with a support for Chicago, Illinois, and Federal locales. They will talk through how they hope it will help achieve the goal of having a better informed & influential citizens.
