Our Mission in Brush Creek

We believe that the most effective governance happens closest to the people. The Brush Creek chapter works to ensure every resident has direct access to their municipal government, meaningful agency over their future, and the ability to hold all power — public, corporate, and algorithmic — accountable.

Strategic Priorities

Local Action Plan

Civic Auditing Boards

Data Sovereignty Ordinances

Push for city-level protections ensuring residents own their digital data and algorithmic transparency is enforced.

Community Broadband

Establish public broadband infrastructure as a utility, ensuring universal internet access regardless of income.
