We foster relationships with allied organizations to better target our records requests and litigation priorities, reduce redundancy in the requester field, and share our immense wealth of experience in open records work with others so they can leverage the documents we uncover for their work. Our partners collaborate closely with us on key advocacy priorities and special projects, and we actively participate in coalitions with subject matter experts on a variety of issues — from exposing the anti-democracy election denial movement to investigations into immigration enforcement, sheriff accountability, and attacks on civil rights and access to the ballot.

We partner by submitting requests in alignment with allies’ needs, sharing information and analyses regarding document productions, and offering strategic support and expertise on filing public records requests. Email us at partnerships@americanoversight.org to learn more!
