This is great but confused me at first because it's slightly misusing the term "civic tech". It's generally used pretty broadly to include all government and gov-adjacent technology. Public monitoring and engagement tools are a part of it but that's just one piece. Civic tech includes actual government projects like Healthcare.gov and IRS Direct File (RIP); organizing platforms like MoveOn.org and ActBlue; and volunteer programs like Code for America and U.S. Digital Response. The line at the bottom of the page does a better job of describing what specifically this project is: "FireStriker is a free civic engagement and legislative intelligence platform for community organizations, unions, PACs, and activists." |
