From Obama's Change.gov website:In a memo released today, Obama-Biden Transition Project Co-chair John D. Podesta announced that all policy documents from official meetings with outside organizations will be publicly available for review and discussion on Change.gov.
This means we're inviting the American public to take a seat at the table and engage in a dialogue about these important issues and ideas -- at the same time members of our team review these documents themselves.
Director of Public Liaison and Intergovernmental Affairs Michael Strautmanis spoke with us and gave an overview of this unique program. Watch the video below:
Co-chair Podesta's memo to the Transition staff is a bold move towards opening the doors and ensuring access to government processes. Read the full memo here.
Talking face-to-face with advocates and experts is a vital part of the Transition. But in past transitions, meetings like these took place behind closed doors and lacked the public input and transparency we're working hard to provide.
Documents from meetings with these groups are available now. Check out our new Seat at the Table feature on Change.gov,

Some group of GOPs with a lot of money took out a full page ad in the Chicago Tribune a couple of days ago saying they need to investigate Obama's citizenship, and the legality of him being President.
The source of all this nonsence was a guest on Hannity's show before the election, the guest was Andy Martin, well known by good and reputable news reporters to be an unreliable source.
OK so the GOP needs to get over it, it was a landslide win, unlike the last two elections which were down to a hand full of votes which favored the GOP under questionable circumstances.
