Nabilah Islam Parkes and other Democratic legislators from Gwinnett, including Reps. Sam Park, Marvin Lim, and Farooq Mughal, endorsed Harris, highlighting her historic candidacy and praising her and Biden's engagement with Georgia's AAPI community. Not all Asian-American lawmakers in Gwinnett support Harris; Rep. Soo Hong, a Republican, remains aligned with his party.

It's fair to say that most governments don't choose to use open source by default. Despite efforts over the past two decades to make open source solutions a viable, or even default solution in government, there's still a lot of skepticism. Those in decision making positions often raise concerns around security and reliability compared to proprietary software that is viewed as being “safe” even if it is more expensive and less flexible in many cases.So what should an open source government look like? And why would we want one?To answer these questions, we are joined by Aaron Snow, Faculty Fellow, and former Acting Executive Director for the Georgetown University Beeck Center for Social Impact and Innovation in Washington DC. Prior to his work at the Beeck Center, Aaron was a US Presidential Innovation Fellow and was subsequently one of the co-founders, and then later Executive Director of 18F, the US government's in-house technology and design consultancy. In 2018 he moved north of the border and became the first CEO of the Government of Canada's Canadian Digital Service. And has twice been named one of the “World's 100 Most Influential People in Digital Government" by Apolitical.In our conversation, we talk about why our current approach to technology actually makes government less transparent, and how open source in government might be a moral imperative. If government is creating or procuring software using taxpayer's money--something that has been in the news with the investigation into the ArriveCan app in Canada--shouldn't government have a requirement to share that code back with the public since it is the public who “owns” it? And how do we ensure that leaders in government know enough about technology to make good decisions about how it is used?Watch on YouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ZJEuTgFK6MRelated LinksDigital Service NetworkAaron Snow's WebsiteGeorgetown University Beeck Center for Social Innovation and ImpactAuditor-General to report Monday on how cost of ArriveCan app grew from $80,000 to more than $54-million (Globe and Mail)Chapters00:00 Introduction04:41 Interview with Aaron Snow06:13 The Security Aspect of Open Source07:46 The Unrealized Promise of Open Source in Government13:15 The Need for Strong Political Leadership in Digital Government24:03 Modular, Reusable Components in Government32:03 Conclusion

Former Federal Deputy CTO Jennifer Pahlka who helped found the U.S. Digital Service and other major technology programs like the Presidential Innovation Fellows has ideas for how government can leverage the opportunities in technology to advance critical services for the public. Often there is a gap between policy and implementation, especially in digital government, which can slow down modernization. But agencies can reevaluate how they provide benefits and services to the public online and strategize the evolution of digital services. Pahlka, who also wrote the book “Recoding America: Why Government Is Failing in the Digital Age and How We Can Do Better,” discusses these strategies as well as where culture and innovation fits in the future digital age for government.
