Openness in Government - Maryland Should Do Better

A report was issued by the Center for Public Integrity that grades each state on its openness and transparency to citizens. Most states did poorly.
Unfortunately Maryland was included in the poor category because, among other things, we are the only state in the country that requires a personal visit to the state capital to see financial disclosure information by public officials. Our legislators should fix this as soon as possible.
