Viewable at all times by the public. They are allowed to turn them off in their own residences and maybe a few other places.
Any meetings or phone calls relating to anything that affects the People, public.
First of all, they'll be kept accountable. Second, we'll see how they like the constant surveillance state.

And NASCAR style suits with patches for all their contributors. Patches should be sized by donation amount.

"Once we have enough information on our elected officials, they will most certainly align with our interests" is a beautiful idea. But simply not born out in practice.
Far too often, you can have someone on camera dead-to-rights doing the most corrupt shit imaginable and... they'll win in a landslide in the next election cycle, because they're doling out the red meat to the right constituents.

Caesar showed them how to do it with his Senate. It's a game as old as politics itself.

Nah, surveillance is not the answer.
The proliferation of body cameras is a can / should problem. People have been performing their duties since the dawn of time without having to capture and provide video evidence of no wrong doing.
There are special cases of course but in general your local parking inspector doesn't need one.
The actual problem is accountability. Theres no lack of evidence of corruption, there's a lack of will to do anything about it.

Could give a frogs fatass about cameras.

Just reminding anyone that body camera's are a pro police not anti police agenda.

The way police body cams are implemented is very pro police.
The way police body cams should be implemented would be pro-truth, pro-transparency.
Good luck with that.

Yeah, redactions should be illegal.

How about no closed door meetings. Even small town governments have closed to the public meetings...
