    Masters of Scale Episode Transcript – Barack Obama part 2 “President Barack Obama, part 2: How to adapt to changing rules” Click here to listen to the full Masters of Scale episode featuring Barack Obama. BARACK OBAMA: I said, the day the healthcare bill passed, "You guys have to make this website work. The only thing that matters right now is that this has to work." REID HOFFMAN: That’s the unmistakable voice of America’s 44th president, Barack Obama. We’re back with part two of our special two-part episode, and if you haven’t listened to part one, go back and do that now! We talked a bit in our last episode about President Obama’s latest book, A Promised Land. It’s full of insights into landmark events from his first term in office, like the 2008 financial crisis, passing the Affordable Care Act, and the raid on Osama bin Laden. The president is working on Volume Two as we speak, which will cover his second term. But there’s one second-term story that I couldn’t help asking about anyway. HOFFMAN: HealthCare.gov, which on the first pass, of course, was traditional government tech– OBAMA: It was a disaster. HOFFMAN: Disaster. Right? HOFFMAN: President Obama said it first! So I don’t feel too bad saying that the rollout of the healthcare exchange marketplace wasn’t just bad … It was shockingly bad. Obama was expected to be the tech president. His campaign wrote the playbook on leveraging social media to win grassroots donations. He was the first to appoint a Chief Technology Officer for the country.

  • Testimony of Jennifer Pahlka, Founder of Code for America and Co-Founder of U.S. Digital Response Before the Committee on the Budget, U.S
    TESTIMONY OF JENNIFER PAHLKA, FOUNDER OF CODE FOR AMERICA AND CO-FOUNDER OF U.S. DIGITAL RESPONSE BEFORE THE COMMITTEE ON THE BUDGET, U.S. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES ON SOFTWARE UPDATE REQUIRED: COVID-19 EXPOSES NEED FOR FEDERAL INVESTMENTS IN TECHNOLOGY JULY 16, 2020 Chair Yarmuth, Ranking Member Womack and members of the Committee, I appreciate you inviting me here today to speak on this critical topic. I have spent the past 10 years working with federal, state and local governments on their transition to effective delivery of services through technology and design as the founder and executive director of Code for America and also as the U.S. Deputy Chief Technology Officer. I had gotten used to how things work. In March of this year, when it became clear that COVID-19 was going to stretch the capacities of state and local government, I and several others started recruiting skilled tech professionals to work alongside government officials in an effort that became U.S. Digital Response, which has now helped over 60 state and local governments respond to the crisis at “the speed of need.” This has once again given me the opportunity to see government technology and service delivery through the eyes of the uninitiated, and the question I am asked over and over again is, “Why does it work that way?” U.S. Digital Response’s tech volunteers ask the question out of genuine confusion and concern when they see how our government systems work. Many of our volunteers have spent their careers building the digital experiences we rely on today when we order and pay for goods and services, communicate with our friends and colleagues, or research a new topic.
