Citizens of Bloomington-Normal, IL founded the Responsible Cities Political Action Committee after the April 2019 election. We see historically low turnout in local races as evidence of a lack of awareness about the impact of these elections on our lives. To be clear: this is where your vote matters most. We help elect leaders in non-partisan municipal elections who are dedicated to building on the already high quality of life here. 

We believe that leadership makes a difference — for better or worse. We support candidates who will unite people, work well with the rich diversity and neighborhoods of Bloomington-Normal, advocate for economic growth, and lead social change. 

Responsible Cities does not ask endorsed candidates to support or oppose any particular issue. Nor does Responsible Cities donate money to candidates. Rather, your financial support enables us to share information about the importance of voting in local elections and about candidates who we believe will move the community not left or right, but forward - responsibly.

If you share these values, please donate or contact us to learn about other ways to support the effort.
