 Use our interactive flash map to learn more about your state's spending transparency!______________________________________________________________________  
 
   Wouldn't it be nice if each taxpayer could learn easily how his or her state government spent taxpayer dollars? Wouldn't it be great to go to one simple website where you could search for spending by keyword, similar to a google search?

   We certainly think so, and the Show Me the Spending Coalition is working to bring user-friendly, state spending databases to a computer near you.

   With your assistance and the help of a wide-ranging coalition of organizations, Congress passed the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act, creating a website (www.usaspending.gov) where visitors can search for federal grant and contract spending.  This was a great victory for government transparency, and now we need to replicate this level of transparency in all 50 states.  

  Please take a look at this list of current state transparency measures.  Also, be sure to visit our Take Action page, where you can send a message to your state legislators. 

Join the Coalition!
