Vicente Anthony "Tony" Borja Ada & Edward "E.J." John Calvo

01 Open checkbook

Will you publish, within your first year, a searchable online database of all government of Guam expenditures — vendor, amount, agency, and date — updated at least monthly?

02 Procurement sunlight

Will you require every solicitation, bid abstract, award decision, contract, and contract amendment above $25,000 to be posted online within 15 days of execution?

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 direct every agency under your authority to meet the response deadlines of the Sunshine Reform Act of 1999, and publish each agency's annual response-time performance?

Yes. Agencies will comply with the Sunshine Reform Act and be responsive to the public. Our administration will track and publish response-time performance and hold agencies accountable. We also recognize that some requests are more complex than others and should be handled in accordance with the procedures provided by law.

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?

We strongly support an independent and effective Office of Public Accountability. However, every budget request must be evaluated alongside available revenues and the needs of all government agencies. Our administration will continue supporting OPA’s role in promoting transparency, accountability, and public trust while requiring agencies to address audit findings.

06 Audit findings have deadlines

Will you require every agency to publish a corrective-action plan, with named owners and dates, within 90 days of any OPA audit finding — and report publicly on completion?

07 Merit in hiring

Will you publish the position description, minimum qualifications, and basis of selection for every appointed position in your administration?

Yes. We will publish position responsibilities, qualifications, and the relevant experience of individuals selected to serve.

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?

Yes. Boards and commissions should comply with the Open Government Law. Our administration will support enforcement of existing legal requirements and appropriate accountability measures when violations occur.
