In Colorado, Rosalie Johnson reduced the average wait time at the DMV from 45 minutes to 15 minutes. New Jersey would gladly accept 45 minutes.

NEW: We found that 13 states could save at least $100,000 to $29 million annually in Medicaid costs without cutting benefits or pharmacy reimbursements.
How? By cutting out the middlemen with corporate markups: Pharmacy Benefit Managers.

Their proposal, which won 2nd place, envisions federal legislation that directs a portion of pre-existing funding sources for transportation and cyberaccess towards modernizing voter registration systems at state DMVs and improving state/local election office technology. It also creates a producer group of election technology manufacturers to better coordinate the ecosystem.

It’s time for our elected leaders to listen to what local election officials have been saying for too long: Congress should appropriate $400 million for election security in FY 2026. Our elections are counting on it. h/t @levinecarrie @VotebeatUS votebeat.org/2025/10/06/loca…

How do we ensure government IT projects WORK and actually serve the public?
Some sobering stats:
1. Of all government software development contracts over $6 million, only 11% are successful.
2. One study of 400 projects found that only 10% of traditionally-developed code was ever actually deployed. Only 2% was ever used.
3. 46% of systems developed across $35 billion worth of DoD spending failed to meet real needs even though they met written, contractual specifications.
