To be a leading democracy in the information age means producing objective, independent, scientifically grounded, and widely shared quality information on where we are and where we are going, on both an absolute and relative basis, including comparisons to other nations.
David Walker, President and CEO of the Peter G. Peterson Foundation / Former Comptroller General of the United States
The State of the USA website
The State of the USA (SUSA) will offer the public a web-based information source that presents key national indicators. It will make these measures of the nation’s progress easy to access for potentially vast numbers of users. The site will be powerful and highly interactive; it will contain data that support the indicators along with explanations of the data, educational features and sophisticated analytical tools for users to interact with those data.
When SUSA’s website is fully developed, anyone with Internet access will be able to enjoy the same quality of information as policy makers, journalists, scientists and the private sector simply by visiting the site. It will be designed to stimulate exchanges among users and encourage users’ suggestions, critiques and ideas so that SUSA can be responsive to them.
