County Commons · a shared petition

Before buying or renewing license-plate cameras: a public hearing, the contract posted, and a yearly audit

The same ask, open in 92 counties in 10 states — 0 signatures in all. Each county's petition goes to that county's own officials and counts toward its own goal. Started by Brayden Sanders, founder of County Commons.

This is a petition to your elected officials — like the clipboard at the courthouse door. It does not put anything on the ballot; that takes the state’s official petition process. Signatures are counted, not verified — one per browser. Petitions in Travis County.
