Issue Position: Government Transparency & Accountability

Issue Position

All citizens -- regardless of political affiliation -- have the right to expect their government to operate in an open, efficient and transparent manner.

State government provides important services like funding education, administering social support services, keeping roads and transit infrastructure in good repair, and keeping workplaces safe and our environment clean and healthy. But our state must do whatever it does efficiently, on time, and on-budget (or better, under-budget). Colorado's Transparency Online Project at http://tops.state.co.us provides a window into the state's finances, and anyone can follow the state budget process each year via the Colorado General Assembly's web site at http://www.leg.state.co.us.
