About US

A Better Mt. Pleasant began as a Facebook page to support local candidates for the Village Board of Trustees, and to keep tabs on Village spending. 

When the Foxconn development was announced in 2017, we found ourselves with years of insight into how things operate at Village Hall and who were the people making decisions.

We never expected to become Foxconn watchdogs, but it was clear - early on - that public input and transparency would be sacrificed in order to please Foxconn. 

Our aim is bring you the information you won't get at Village Hall. Our contributors are community organizers, journalists, and legal researchers. We work smart and we work cheap.

Thanks for visiting!
