About Transparency

This Web site is a tool to help you get to know your state government. Its purpose is to show you how government works, what your taxes buy, and how purchasing decisions occur. Don't let all the spreadsheets overwhelm you! A good place to start is the 2013-2015 budget. If you have questions about agency-specific information, contact that agency. If you have comments about or suggestions for additions to this site, e-mail us at oregon.transparency@state.or.us. More data is on the way.
