Hosted by the League of Women Voters of California, the First Amendment Coalition’s open-government experts will provide an in-depth presentation on your rights to access public meetings in California. The presentation will be 45 minutes, reserving 15 minutes at the end for questions.
When: Tuesday, January 31, 2023, 12:00 PM PT
The presentation will focus on the Ralph M. Brown Act’s open-meeting requirements for local legislative bodies, including recent law changes that affect teleconferencing and decorum rules.
The session will cover:
- your right to give public comment and what restrictions government bodies can place on the public;
- what government business can be done behind closed doors;
- common complaints from members of the public about accessing and participating in meetings;
- and where First Amendment speech protections intersect with the government’s ability to manage proceedings.
All are welcome, but you must register to attend. Register here >>
