Field notes
The project describes a five-step reporting workflow that starts with original records and follows decisions through votes, money, implementation, and consequences. Its stated founding model is unusually concrete: Nevada serves as the proof of concept across all 17 counties, while 49 additional state desks remain open. The homepage also separates the national resource system from a W4USA Newsroom intended to publish reporting, source ledgers, and updates.
