One of the most important responsibilities of government is to ensure transparency. While some states and government agencies excel at achieving this goal, others often fall short. Fortunately, Idaho’s State Controller has taken a major step forward in promoting transparency with the latest updates to the Transparent Idaho platform. This tool, managed by the Controller’s Office, is a valuable resource that allows citizens to access thousands of pieces of data and information about how their tax dollars are spent, all in an easy-to-use format.
