Reinvent Albany advocates for more open New York State and NYC Government and a stronger Freedom of Information Law.
We are winning more open government, stronger Freedom of Information Law, open data, online fiscal and spending transparency, open meetings, more robust ethics and lobbying disclosure and rules. We helped write the first open data law in the world! Since winning the NYC Open Data Law in 2012, we’ve pushed NYC and NY State to create top notch open data initiatives.
