When Jack Lew responds to the Senate committees that share jurisdiction over his hearing, there's a possibility that he'll be asked about the federal budget, but we hope he'll get a chance to talk about government openness as well. OMB should continue to push the envelope on federal spending transparency. Under Orszag, OMB has implemented a number of policies that have significantly improved public access to federal spending information, including implementing Recovery Act recipient reporting and putting subrecipient reporting data on USAspending.gov. Lew should help make Obama's vision of an era of unprecedented federal transparency a reality.
