In December 2002, the President signed the E-Government Act of 2002 into

E-Government efforts across the Federal government. Highlights of the
legislation include
- Establishment of an Office of Electronic Government within OMB with
an administrator appointed by the President
- Establishment of the CIO Council, an inter- agency forum for sharing
IT best practices
- Establishment an E-Government fund of $345 million for Fiscal Years
(FY) 2003 through 2006
- Authorization for the General Services Administration (GSA) to
develop a framework for electronic signatures
