}}USAFacts (circa 2017) is a non-profit organization and website which offers a non-partisan portrait of the US population, its government's finances, and government's impact on society.[1][2][3][4][5]

History and background

USAFacts was founded by former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer.[6][7][8][9][10][11][12] USAFacts was launched on April 18, 2017 Tax Day, with the goal of making government data about tax revenues, expenditures, and outcomes more accessible and understandable. USAFacts's platform is designed to provide information to the public about government spending and impact at all levels, from federal to local.[13][14]

At launch, the website gathered data from over 70 government agencies and pulls data from more than 130 US government statistical databases and reports.[15]

Only official government data is included in the site.[16][17][18]

On April 17, 2018 USAFacts held what it described as America's Shareholder Meeting, a live webcast where Ballmer discussed USAFacts' "2018 Annual Report and 10-K for the US Government".[19][20]
