Utilizing technology to increase transparency by making more documents, fiscal information, legislative information, campaign finance information, etc. available online.
Work to ensure timely passage of the state budget by requiring the state to default to the previous year's budget if no agreement is reached by the June 30th deadline.
Push to eliminate WAMs once-and-for-all and replace them with a transparent grant system based on the merit of public projects.
