California is launching a digital platform to encourage the public to share ideas on important issues and find solutions, said Gov. Gavin Newsom on Feb. 23. Recovery from the Los Angeles fires was selected as the first topic for the pilot project.
Newsom’s office said the Engaged California program is “a first-in-the-nation deliberative democracy program” that aims to bring Californians together “to engage, interact, and share ideas to help shape government services and collectively create policy solutions.”
