Fully remote, secure voting for Congress could be possible
Members have had online hearings and meetings by the thousands. But the only remote voting allowed was by proxy.
Sunlight Foundation Policy Counsel Daniel Schuman is leading the campaign to improve the Library of Congress website that reports congressional data.
The Sunlight Foundation is creating the Save the Data to fight cuts to open government websites.
Several sites, including Data.gov, the IT Dashboard and the FEDRamp cloud efforts, could be shut down in the next two months if the administration doesn\’t get more money under the E-government fund. In all, nine sites are on the list to be discontinued by July 30 if OMB doesn\’t find money to keep it going. Experts say OMB has several ways to keep the sites up, including pass-the-hat among agencies.
