Show Me Integrity:
Reform STL
Show Me Integrity, a grassroots cross-partisan organization at the frontlines of reforming Missouri politics for a more ethical, effective government of, by, and for the people, presented its latest coalition, Reform STL, to bring transparency and reform ethics in St. Louis city government.
Reform STL seeks to place a charter amendment on the November ballot that would include: 1) Create an Independent People’s Redistricting Commission, instead of alderpersons, to redraw ward lines, 2) more readily establish Conflict of Interest guidelines regarding city policies, and 3) ensure transparency of financial disclosures for alderpersons.
The organization is currently seeking volunteers over the next few months to help collect signatures on petitions to get the charter amendment on the November ballot. To sign up, click the button below or visit https://actionnetwork.org/forms/reformstlpollworkers.
