The Report Card will be released along with three supporting papers by independent experts Margaret Kosal, Brian Finlay, and Barry Kellman. It follows in the footsteps of the 9/11 Commission’s Public Discourse Project Report Card, which assessed our government’s response to the Commission’s 2004 recommendations.
