01 Open checkbook

Will you vote for legislation requiring a searchable online database of all government of Guam expenditures, and for the appropriations to build it?

02 Procurement sunlight

Will you vote to make that online posting a statutory condition of payment under the Guam Procurement Law?

I support this initiative in principle. Timely online postings of solicitations, bid abstracts, award decisions, and contracts are essential for procurement transparency, provided they are practical and do not hinder legitimate procurement processes.

03 Sole-source accountability

Will you support a public quarterly report listing every sole-source and emergency procurement, the justification invoked, and the approving official, by name of office?

04 FOIA performance

Will you support penalties for agencies that fail to file the annual reports the Sunshine Reform Act already requires?

05 Auditor independence

Will you commit to funding the Office of Public Accountability at no less than its own requested budget, and oppose any appropriation that reduces OPA funding below the prior fiscal year?

It is crucial that the Office of Public Accountability is adequately funded to fulfill its mission. I will oppose any efforts to weaken it through insufficient appropriations.

06 Audit findings have deadlines

Will you commit to holding an oversight hearing on any agency with audit findings open for more than one year?

Yes. Strong oversight is necessary, and I support hearings for any agency with serious audit findings that remain unresolved for over a year.

07 Merit in hiring

Will you support legislation requiring that disclosure government-wide?

Certainly. I support publishing position descriptions, minimum qualifications, and the selection criteria for every appointed position, ensuring transparency in the appointment process.

08 Open meetings

Will you require every board and commission within your authority to post agendas, minutes, and recordings as the Open Government Law contemplates — and support real consequences for bodies that do not?

I advocate for full compliance with open government requirements, including the posting of agendas, minutes, and recordings, with real consequences for noncompliance.
