E-Government is a High Priority

"Widespread use of government Web sites has laid a broad foundation of public support for e-government; i.e., using the Internet and other technologies to increase the availability of services and information. About three in four (73%) Americans believe that the new administration should put e-government at the top of its to-do list. Of those who have used the Internet to access government services or information, 80% say that President Bush should make government a high priority, but even a majority of those who may not benefit directly believe that e-government is of the utmost importance—67% of adults who do not use the Internet believe that e-government should be a top priority for the new president."
