The Sunlight Foundation
The Washington Post (4/26/06) reported on a new organization, The Sunlight Foundation that just opened. The Sunlight Foundation is meant to bring transparency to government – something sorely needed. Also a part of the initiative is Congresspedia. The Sunlight Foundation's goal is:
"… is to use revolutionary power of the Internet and new information technology to enable citizens to learn more about what Congress and their elected representatives are doing, and thus help reduce corruption, ensure greater transparency and accountability by government, and foster public trust in the vital institutions of democracy."
Way to go Micah and all those involved!
