Be A Public Citizen

Let’s keep with a safety theme. While keeping our kids safe is a top priority, it’s also important that we safeguard our rights. One way to do that is to become aware of the things that are happening in various aspects of our lives.

Public Citizen is a watchdog group that sets out to protect consumers. Founded in 1971, this non-profit group fights for openness and accountability in our government. Since they recieve no corporate (advertising) or government funding, donations are welcome.

Public Citizen monitors Auto Safetly, keeps tabs on Congress, watches over Global trade and has divisions for energy, health and litigation. The organization has been instrumental in removing Red Dye #2 (a carcinogen) from the market, releasing the Nixon White House tapes and organizing protests against the World Trade Organization. While diverse, these are all issues that concern every citizen.

You’ll also find a contact form at the site for any inquiries you have. This isn’t the place to complain that term life insurance quotes are too expensive but it is the best place to stay informed about the Global economy and what our government is doing day to day.
