White House Seeks Input on Federal Government Transparency

The White House is seeking public comments on its new open government initiative. This is the first of a three phase process designed to engage open government experts, the public, and advocates in the process of developing recommendations on the best approach for establishing and sustaining federal open government policies. The recommendations will be used to develop instructions to guide executive departments and agencies on the implementation of open government rules. The first phase is an online brainstorming process that will end May 28, 2009.
