Require federal agencies to publish government purchase-card spending item by item

To: your members of Congress

Federal purchase cards carried $39.4 billion across about 82 million transactions in fiscal 2025, according to the General Services Administration, and the card networks record each purchase’s merchant, category and amount. GSA publishes totals. We ask Congress to require agencies to publish the transactions themselves.

When it reaches the goal it’s handed to the officials named above at a public meeting, and their answer is posted online. This is a petition to your elected officials — like the clipboard at the courthouse door. It does not put anything on the ballot; that takes the state’s official petition process. Names are never shown publicly. County Commons — an independent, nonpartisan public-records project.
