House Gov't Reform GOP Site Gets Facelift

housegovtreformGOP.jpg

House Oversight and Government Reform ranking member Darrell Issa has given the committee's minority Web site an overhaul. The enhanced site is designed to create a user-friendly hub for information about the panel's work and Republicans' oversight of federal programs. Features include an interactive calendar; custom-built pages for each GOP committee member; a rotating front page video module, allowing users to simultaneously watch live hearings and explore documents; and a Twitter feed, displaying minority committee member's tweets in real time.

"Our expanded online presence highlights important investigations and efforts to achieve real accountability and transparency in government," Issa said in a statement. "Our watchdog Web site is a straight-forward platform from which we will call out Washington's fiscal irresponsibility, engage all Americans in the daily fight for effective governance and transport users into the trenches of federal oversight."
