What Others Are Saying About OMB Watch's Work over the Past 25 Years

"OMB Watch is the offensive guard of the public interest community."
John Podesta
President and CEO
Center for American Progress


"OMB Watch is one of the most effective research and advocacy organizations I work with. They are often the first place I call on issues related to the role nonprofits play in advocating open and accessible government and equitable tax and budget policy. OMB Watch has been an invaluable ally on countless issues.... OMB Watch and its staff provide sound, strategic advice and quick, no-nonsense action. No one has the credibility to convene diverse groups as quickly and with such successful results as they do."
Edwin S. Jayne
Associate Director of Legislation
American Federation of State County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME)


"OMB Watch provides reliable, timely, and important information on developments related not just to OMB [the Office of Management and Budget], but to Congress and other administrative departments as well. I regularly visit OMB Watch's website for analysis on new regulatory policies or to access related information. OMB Watch is also an outspoken advocate for policies that improve public access to information. U.S. PIRG values OMB Watch both as a coalition partner and as a leader in promoting and protecting an open and responsive federal government. We are grateful for the expertise and experience that OMB Watch brings to the table..."
Alex Fidis
formerly with U.S. PIRG


"OMB Watch plays an essential role in nonprofit advocacy nationwide. The Minnesota Council of Nonprofits is one of many state associations that rely on OMB Watch's timely research and astute analysis, without which we could not be informed and responsive on federal issues. It was OMB Watch that convened other national and state-based organizations to respond to efforts to limit lobbying rights of nonprofits, to fight the repeal of the estate tax, to make a compelling case for sound fiscal policies. It is OMB Watch that provides extensive information, networks, policy recommendations, and access to the policy process to MCN and our 1,850 member organizations. OMB Watch has dedicated staff time to supporting MCN's efforts to advance advocacy. We value and use OMB Watch's work and are grateful to have such fine leaders and allies in engaging nonprofits in important policy issues."
Marcia Avner
Public Policy Director
Minnesota Council of Nonprofits
