Open government promises fade under Obama administration
The article argues that after promising unprecedented transparency, President Obama delivered a mixed record. It notes expanded whistleblower protections on paper but more Espionage Act prosecutions, partial FOIA reforms, a short lived ethics czar, and some revolving door limits. It highlights a spring 2016 letter from watchdog groups urging practical steps to improve openness and accountability, with no White House response at the time.
