Let’s all try to make our own small contribution to the fight against the illegal enrichment of government officials.

The first step of the campaign is to collect 100,000 signatures on ROI (the Russian Public Initiative platform) and formally set out our demands.

I recorded a video appeal, and the guys from ACF (the Anti-Corruption Foundation) sent it out to our mailing lists:

You don’t have to record a video appeal, but persuading a couple of people you know to vote would be great. And it doesn’t matter what their political views are—no one likes corruption:

So far, we’ve done about one-third of the work on the “ROI” subproject:

You can track the voting progress here; so far, we’re doing pretty well.

But we can do even better. Before, during the vote on official cars, we had to persuade people not just to vote, but also to register, go somewhere in person, or receive physical mail offline. Now, though, we know for certain that among us there are more than 100,000 people registered on Gosuslugi (Russia’s government services portal). For them, voting is not difficult at all.

Please don’t put it off—vote. We need to show that the fight against illegal enrichment is a task of nationwide importance.

Already voted? Convince a couple of people you know. Just retell a couple of examples from here—that is usually enough.

A reminder: a detailed explanation of why you should vote on ROI (the Russian Public Initiative platform) is here. Instructions on where to get the password for voting are here.
