Welcome to what declaring to be the Year of Government Transparency in New York state. Reporters across our USA TODAY Network sites upstate and downstate are committing in 2022 to pursue government records relevant to the health and welfare. We will publish new searchable databases of these records and write more stories holding our leaders and institutions accountable for how well or poorly they are serving New York- ers.
