Civic Notice: Local Government

Civic Notice shows you what your governments are actually working on: who represents you, how each of them voted where the record we hold shows it, and what is on the agenda in the cities and counties we cover. It is a reading tool. It does not tell you what to think about any of it. WHAT YOU GET • Congress and, in most states, your state legislature, plus your city and county where we cover them, in one feed chosen by the places you name. • Upcoming meetings and their agenda items in the cities and counties we cover, before the meeting. • Roll calls by name, where the records we read carry them. • The people who hold each seat, and how each voted where the record we hold shows it. • A government's own summary, where we can show one, labelled as theirs. • A link on every item to its source, so you can check us. HOW WE STAY NEUTRAL Civic Notice is independent: it is not run by, or affiliated with, any government. No scores, no grades, no rankings, and no AI summaries. We do not rewrite the title of a measure, and we do not summarise anything ourselves. Where the record has a gap, the app says so and says whose gap it is, instead of filling it in. COVERAGE Coverage differs by government, and the app says exactly what it holds for each one on that government's own screen. Cities and counties are added one at a time; every state legislature is included, most with bills and roll calls; Congress is covered for both chambers. State legislature bills, roll calls and member records come from Open States, a public database of state legislative data. The current list is always at civicnotice.net. PRIVACY No accounts, no ads, no tracking. The places you name stay on your phone. The one exception: if you name a place the app cannot match to a government we cover, the app sends us that place's name and state, nothing more, once, so we know where to look next. Free, with optional notifications for upcoming meetings in the cities and counties we cover.
