Quotes

Officials only, in order.

…the next time your team comes back to us, it’ll be with individual projects that are under this framework. Is that how it’ll look?Janet Tarlov · Chair1:40:07
And do these datasets also incorporate the recent events that have happened? So like the World Cup and other things, or is this data prior— are these stats prior to those events?Stephanie Cajina · Vice chair3:01:51

How we count

Each summary sentence is checked against the transcript before it is published; in a blind check, 99 of 100 sentences were right. A voice gets an official’s name only when two AI readers and a code check agree, so the minutes undercount and are not attendance. Officials only: members of the public are counted, never named, shown or quoted, and full transcripts aren’t published because they can carry their names. More on how we know
