AMERICA CAN’T BE GREAT AGAIN UNTIL IT IS ACCOUNTABLE: That’s the core message of OpenTheBooks.com founder and CEO Adam Andrzejewski’s recent address to hundreds of state legislators from across the country at the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) conference.

This guy and his troops filed more than 40,000 Freedom of Information (FOI) requests for spending data at all levels of government. As somebody who has fought the transparency-in-government fight for three decades, I can attest to what a phenomenal achievements that is. Adam’s address is 22.37 minutes long and worth every minute.
