Want to be a watchdog?
Minnesota watchdog training session Saturday, October 24
The Freedom Foundation of Minnesota will hold a Minnesota Watchdog training session Saturday, October 24 in downtown Minneapolis. The goal of this session is to train concerned citizens from across the state to become local taxpayer watchdogs, tracking local government activities in their own backyard.
The event will feature instruction and panel discussions on:
- Legal issues involving the Freedom of Information Act, Minnesota Data Practices Act, and Minnesota Open Meeting Law
- How to work with traditional and new media
- How to analyze local government documents and financial data
The downtown Minneapolis training session will be held on Saturday, October 24th with registration beginning at 8:30 a.m. and the conference concluding no later than 1:30 pm.
Speakers and further conference information will be available shortly and included in future FFM Bulletins.
