Transparency fight just beginning

Getting Kentucky government officials to show us what they are doing with our resources is a battle that will never end. Now that state officials are moving on financial transparency, we need to generate some momentum on the local government and school board level.

The goal is to have access to public financial information of all kinds in the state as readily available to citizens as the nearest internet connection. The more complete this information is, the more justification will be necessary for public spending of all kinds.

Now we need the legislature to post legislators' committee votes online each day so we can more easily track who is doing what on the laws we will all have to live under.
