NOTICE: MIRRORS ARE CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE DUE TO BANDWIDTH AND FUNDING CONCERNS. ANYONE INTERESTED IN THIS PROJECT SHOULD CONTACT US.
By mirroring all federal government websites, UnitedStatesOfAmerica.com’s Government Information Mirror Service sought to preserve government information for the education of current and future generations, for independent research, and for provision of redundant/alternative access in the event original documents become unavailable. Mirror access would also assists people in countries where the “.gov” extension may be blocked by their government. For this reason, mirrors were to be published in several languages under an assortment of domain names and IP numbers.
Hundreds of thousands of pages were added before the website had to be moved from a dedicated server to a less expensive shared server because of financial constraints. Hopefully, they become available again in the not too distant future.
The first service of its kind, UnitedStatesOfAmerica.com Government Information Mirror Service included a citizen comment area for every mirrored and archived government page. By archiving these comments as attachments to original mirrored documents, citizens of the future can better comprehend the contrast between public opinion and official government actions. It is believed that such understanding will lead to better government.

The federal government for the United States of America has three branches: the legislature, executive, and judiciary. Through a system of separation of powers, each branch has some authority to act on its own and some authority to regulate the other two branches.
However, the powers of the federal government as a whole are limited by the Constitution, leaving a great deal of authority to the individual states.
Over the past decade the federal government has made more than 94 million pages of information available electronically. We’ve narrowed it down to the links most likely of interest to you.
