Sunlight Foundation's new open government logo
The Sunlight Foundation, our partner in Washington, DC working for open and accountable government, has today debuted a new graphic to stand for their mission and purpose.
Public=Online is an idea that lies at the core of Sunlight's work, and their tireless efforts in Washington have laid a foundation for what open government truly means. As they gear up for a national campaign in March, this new emblem may serve to represent not only their work, but the efforts of all organizations and individuals who believe that citizens deserve a government that both communicates openly and listens attentively.
From Jake Brewer's post: "This mark...is a very important step because we’re not just building a campaign. This is a movement we’re part of. And when we say “we,” it is not just “the Sunlight Foundation” that we are talking about. It’s all of us who care about changing the relationship citizens have with their government by making it more transparent, participatory and collaborative. It’s anyone who thinks that government can work better on their behalf and has a responsibility to do so."
