- Providing education and advice about how to comply with the laws and why complying is important.

- Processing and providing public access to disclosure statements filed by candidates, committees, officeholders, city officials, lobbying entities, bidders, contractors, and others.

- Conducting audits and confidential enforcement investigations to help ensure compliance.

- Analyzing policy issues, evaluating existing laws, and making legislative recommendations.
