Maes pledges transparency
by Amy Oliver | 2:56 pm, August 16, 2010 | Comments Off
Republican gubernatorial candidate Dan Maes promised that if elected he would post online all his state credit card transactions down to the penny. He went further than that. During his appearance on Transparency Czarina Amy Oliver’s radio show, Maes pledged to post all state credit card transactions.
Maes pledge was a response to Amy’s question about improving the state’s transparency Web site, the Transparency Online Project, called “the nation’s most user unfriendly.” Maes says he believes every taxpayer has a right to know where every dime of their money is spent.
Should he win, COST intends to hold him to his promise. It would be a refreshing change from the current attitude towards transparency.
