“Rock the Capital has done more than any organization to create a public record where PA agencies would prefer no record at all. Its website is a powerful tool for anyone who wants to improve government and protect billions of taxpayer dollars from fraud, waste, and abuse. We are a better commonwealth because of their work.”- Tim Potts, President of Democracy Rising PA (2004-2014)
