Other Information:

The Administration created the White House Open Government Initiative to coordinate Open Government policy, projects, and design technology platforms that foster openness across the Executive branch. The Initiative has achieved many important milestones, including: ◦Publishing government data online to make it easy for anyone to remix and reuse, thus involving the American people in the development of public policy, ◦Challenging thousands of Federal employees to propose ideas for slashing the time required to process veterans’ disability benefits, ◦Releasing information on Executive branch personnel and salaries, and ◦Launching the IT dashboard, a one-stop clearinghouse of information that allows anyone with a web browser to track government spending on technology and hold the government accountable.
