Secrecy Poisoning American Democracy

Secrecy Poisoning American Democracy

A new report that we’re releasing today makes the case that out-of-control secrecy is a serious disease that is hurting American democracy. More and more of our government’s actions are being hidden from the people who are supposed to be ultimately in charge of that government. A story about attempts to uncover secret laws in today’s Washington Post shows just how timely our report is.

Note: Not about child welfare, so to speak, but secrecy is a big problem there too.
