Mission
Truth In Government is a public watchdog organization dedicated to fiscal responsibility in government through the promotion of honest budgeting, accounting, financial management and reporting practices by Congress and the Executive Branch.
Our 4-Point Plan
-
Apply generally accepted accounting principles for government-wide use on the federal level.
-
Reform the current federal budget process to include a capital budget, and zero-based budgeting on a biennial basis.
-
Make the Chief Financial Officer's function an independent, cabinet-level position with a 15-year term.
-
Prepare independently audited, annual financial statements for the federal government that the average citizen can make sense of.
The Truth In Government Agenda for America
-
Educate the American people about the role as taxpaying consumers of government goods and services through the funds our government taxes, borrows, and spends for them.
-
Demand accountability from our elected officials using the voting booth to implement:
* Generally accepted accounting principles for the federal government
* Uniform government-wide accounting systems and reporting practices
* Professionally qualified Chief Financial Officers in all government
agencies and departments
* Independently audited, annual financial statements
* A capital budget, and zero-based budgeting on a biennial basis
-
Safeguard our children's capital and the "American Dream" by being informed about the true state of our nation's fiscal affairs.
