Your Seat at the Table

In the spirit of transparency, the presidential transition team has announced that all policy documents from official meetings with outside organizations will be publicly available for review and discussion on change.gov. The transition office says, "We're inviting the American public to take a seat at the table and engage in a dialogue about these important issues and ideas -- at the same time members of our team review these documents themselves."

Read the memo from transition head John Podesta to all transition staff, and get more information (and a video) here.

Some materials are already available in the new "Your Seat at the Table" section of change.gov. If you see something interesting you'd like to raise on this blog, send me an email or add a comment to this post.
