Congressional Research Service Reports Leaked

The U.S. Congressional Research Service provides reports at the request of lawmakers on about every issues Congress decides on.

The Federation of American Scientists has pressed to get these released as they are paid for with $100 million tax dollars per year and are thought to be of decent quality. At least they tell what congress might think about an issue. But except for a few that got leaked to Open CRS most of them so far were kept secret.

Today Wikileak published copies of 6,731 CRS reports spanning over several years and current up to this month.

If you want to know what the CRS teaches lawmakers about China's Holdings of U.S. Securities: Implications for the U.S. Economy, Income Inequality and the U.S. Tax System or Africa Command: U.S. Strategic Interests and the Role of the U.S. Military in Africa and a thousand other issues it is now all out there for everyone to read and assess.

The reports by date list is good starting point.

Have at it!
