Allow users to be tagged/grouped by geographic location? #63

Open fierce-bad-squirrel opened 12 years ago

fierce-bad-squirrel commented 12 years ago

If we're going to try to cover all levels of possible legislation, should we make allow users to create location-based groupings to more easily coordinate efforts among "local" users? I'm defining "local" very loosely, since this would vary depending on the type of legislation (city, county, state, etc.).

cf. #51

I think state legislation is a great place to get people started. There's usually something going on locally that people feel strongly about. Just today I voted against a constitutional amendment in my state. On May 2, 2012 2:30 PM, "fierce-bad-squirrel" < reply@reply.github.com> wrote:
