Knowledge is power; therefore the process of gaining knowledge is also the process of gaining power. By learning we become more powerful people, and by learning about the government we can become more powerful, more responsible citizens. To learn about what our government does (instead of opinions, rumors, or biased reports about the government), this site links to and mirrors copies of documents produced by the government. By reading these documents, patrons of The Paper Trail can learn and form their own opinions about the government without being subjected to third party interpretation.
