Electronic Government

".......Our success depends on agencies working as a team across traditional boundaries to better serve the American people, focusing on citizens rather than individual agency needs. I thank agencies who have actively engaged in cross-agency teamwork, using E Government to create more cost-effective and efficient ways to serve citizens, and I urge others to follow their lead. "

George W. Bush
July, 2002
