This measure would set up a Commission on Evidence-Based Policymaking. The Commission would review and analyze how the federal government uses its data and then make recommendations to Congress to improve the use of data for building evidence and making policy decisions. Its core goal is to help government decisions rely more on solid facts and analysis, not guesses or politics .
