Thanks to Joey Brown, Bryan Glazer & Sunlight Labs you’ll be able to soon:
- Instantly find and give feedback to your state and federal elected officials all across the United States
- Embed the MyRepresentatives feedback button in your site or blog, so whether you’re a news organization, non-profit or advocacy organization, you can make it easy for your audience to get engaged.
The goal is to transform journalism from just presenting information to providing civic engagement tools that make it easy for readers/viewers to take action. After all, isn’t the whole point of journalism to help drive change?
With MyRepresentatives you can embed the MyRepresentatives feedback button on your site, just like you do links to Twitter and Facebook, and you’re done!
Best of all it’s free! The entire site has been developed as an after-hours non-partisan public-service project, but that doesn’t mean we won’t accept donations.
So stay tuned! And feel free to contact us for more details about how you can integrate MyRepresentatives into your site.
