Independent watchdog journalism — this is not a government website.

About the Gov Transparency Project

We follow the money and track the votes — turning public federal data into plain-language accountability journalism.

Our mission

The Gov Transparency Project is an independent, non-partisan publication. We translate primary-source government data — federal spending, the national debt, Federal Reserve economic indicators, and congressional activity — into clear analysis any citizen can read.

Independence & disclaimer

Gov Transparency Project is not a government website and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by the U.S. government or any federal agency.

Data sources

Our figures come directly from public APIs and official releases, including:

Methodology

Economic indicators and charts are refreshed on a daily schedule via automated jobs and rendered from a cached snapshot, so figures are as current as the most recent refresh. See the Data & Methodology page for the full series list.

Follow the money and the votes. We'll send the biggest findings — who's funding whom, notable trades, and where the money goes. No spam, unsubscribe anytime.

Email alerts are coming soon. In the meantime, dig into who's funding whom and how they vote.
