The League has been a champion of government transparency since our founding in 1920. It is one of our core principles and a vital part of our mission. 

League observers attend governmental meetings to learn what their government is doing and to monitor whether those meetings are conducted in an open and transparent way.
Observers’ reports are factual and non-judgmental, present various sides of an issue and are intended to help members be well-informed before making any decisions concerning possible League or individual action.
