Senate probe finds massive errors in program detailing U.S. agency spending

A U.S. government program designed to give the public and policymakers a clear view of how Washington uses federal dollars is

riddled with errors and new Trump administration changes threaten to make the problem worse

A 2014 law, the Digital Accountability and Transparency Act, :lol that damn knitter again! :lol

requires federal agencies to submit spending data to be posted on the website USAspending.gov. Last year, those 96 agencies spent nearly $4 trillion.
The Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations found that

at least 55 percent of the data submitted during an April-June 2017 review period was inaccurate, incomplete or both.

For example, investigators found that for the Department of Homeland Security, dollar figures on the website for some contracts it awarded did not match up with the actual contracts.

“It is troubling :lol that most federal agencies failed to comply with this law,”

the failure “has diminished the ability of policy-makers and taxpayers to see how their tax dollars are being spent in a timely and accurate way.”

the Office of Management and Budget

and

the Treasury Department

issued new guidance for the program “that

weakens data standards and could lead to continued inaccurate DATA Act submissions.”
