The Bulletin was a quarterly (sometimes more frequent) compilation of stories and commentary of the involvement of cities and local elected officials in foreign policy. Among the topics frequently covered were nuclear freeze votes, nuclear free zones, anti-apartheid divestment campaigns, sister cities, and local ordinances to control and eliminate CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) and other ozone-depleting compounds.
