About

A citizens’ group of veteran open-government activists that has submitted to City Hall a package of amendments to strengthen the city’s open-meeting and public-records law, San Francisco’s Sunshine Ordinance.

To place these amendments on the local ballot, we need your help in collecting voter signatures, fund-raising, distributing informational materials and the myriad other activities that a grass-roots political effort entails.

Leading San Franciscans for Sunshine are:

  • Allyson Washburn, Chairperson
    Former Chair of the Sunshine Ordinance Task Force
    Former President of the League of Women Voters
  • Maxine Anderson
    Board Member of the League of Women Voters
  • Bruce Brugmann
    Cofounder, editor, and publisher of The Bay Guardian
    Former Sunshine Ordinance Task Force member
  • Kristin Chu
