Every record.
Every deadline.
On the record.

The Operating Principle

Public accountability is not a performance. It is a disciplined record.

01

Evidence Before Accusation

Every material claim is tied to an identifiable source, verification status, and context record.

02

Response Before Conclusion

Agencies and affected persons receive a fair opportunity to answer before final publication whenever practicable.

03

Corrections Remain Visible

Changes are dated, explained, and preserved so the public can see how the record developed.

Verification Method Full methodology →
01

Observe

Define the public-interest question and preserve the original context of what occurred.

02

Document

Collect original files, correspondence, policies, timestamps, and an evidence-integrity record.

03

Verify

Test material propositions against primary sources, contrary evidence, and the agency's response.

04

Publish

Present findings, disputed points, original records, and any later correction in one permanent matter file.

Sister Initiative

History established the right. 74 Watch tests the promise.

Project74' preserves Louisiana's constitutional history and civic legacy. 74 Watch carries that inheritance into present-day public accountability — tracking records, evidence, and agency conduct against it.
