Take this Pledge from the Sunlight Foundation re Open Government

Take this pledge that will help make government work a little better for us: http://publicequalsonline.com/pledge/ The pledge is part of a new campaign called Public=Online. It's a nationwide network of citizens working to make government more open and transparent, and I think it's great. I just signed the pledge because I know government should be transparent, but it definitely isn't right now. The campaign is trying to build as much muscle as possible to make government change its ways, and the pledge is the first way to accomplish to do that. That's why I signed it. I want the folks who represent me to know that I expect them to be transparent about things like how they spend my money or how they are being influenced by lobbyists. Right now it just feels like government is one big black box, and I feel like this pledge is something we can do as a step in the right direction.
