USDA Releases Plan for Transparency and Openness

USDA released its Open Government Plan yesterday in an effort to integrate transparency and participation into the agency’s daily operations. “We owe the American people an open and transparent government, but to make the government as effective as possible in completing the people’s business, we need our citizens to participate and collaborate with us,” said Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack. “This is an unprecedented effort to open the government and work with the people it serves.” Review the press release.
