Study: Washington, Oregon Score Low In Government Openness

(Undated)  --  Results of a new study give Washington a low grade for government transparency and accountability.  The Center for Public Integrity gives the Evergreen state a "D-plus" in government openness, even though it ranks 12th in the nation in that category.  The study grades states based on the laws and systems they have in place to deter corruption.  Oregon has a grade of "F" and ranks 44th in the study, while Alaska, California, and Connecticut rank first, second, and third, respectively.
