In recent times, our local government has enacted laws that have sharply curtailed the transparency requirements for elected officials. Key information on politicians’ income and attendance records is no longer available for public perusal. This affront to democracy undermines accountability and promotes a culture of opacity in our governance. Hence, as part of the "Bürgerinitiative: Offene Politik" campaign, this petition earnestly requests a robust change in regulations. We need laws that mandate the open disclosure of public officials’ earnings and attendance records. Our democracy thrives on the principles of transparency, accountability, and public participation. Secrecy in these matters hampers our ability to make informed voting decisions. Let us stand united against the regressive laws that hinder our right to informed citizenship. Join us to demand the reinstatement of these transparency laws, ensuring a more open and accountable political environment. Please sign this petition, and support us in restoring transparency to our politics.
