Our Work
As part of our work to ensure the government works for everyone, we produce a variety of written products.
POGO Investigates
Our investigative journalism is produced separately and independently from POGO’s policy and advocacy work, and it adheres to the highest standards of editorial independence and journalistic ethics.
Reports and Analysis
Our reports and analyses highlight ways the government isn’t best serving the people, and they recommend ways it can.
Civic Engagement and Advocacy
Our Civic Engagement program mobilizes members of the public to engage federal policymakers, advocating for solutions around problems of government corruption, waste, and abuse of power.
Testimony and Public Comments
We give policy recommendations through testimony and public comments informed by more than 40 years of experience as a nonpartisan, good government watchdog.
Policy Letters and Fact Sheets
Through policy letters and fact sheets, we provide policymakers with key information and recommendations for strengthening our democracy.
Congressional Oversight Staff Resources
Our Congressional Oversight Initiative enhances Congress’s ability to conduct effective oversight by providing congressional trainings and resources.
Whistleblower Support
We offer several resources for federal employees thinking about blowing the whistle.
