MuckRock needs volunteers to keep government open to all
A little over two years ago, after a Supreme Court decision ruled that states could restrict public records to their own citizens, we launched a network of volunteers to help journalists, researchers, and activists continue to file requests.

MuckRock needs volunteers
MuckRock is run by a small but dedicated staff, but with a lot of support from our equally dedicated user base, we’ve managed to do big things. We’d like to formalize that relationship by putting out the call for volunteers – users who can help us with everything from cleaning up our agency list to writing new articles – and not only will you be ensuring that we’re doing the best job we can, you’ll be earning free requests, to boot!
