In the report, the Progressive Policy Institute found that less than 60 percent of federal transactions were available online by the October 2003 deadline set under a 1999 law and that the administration had not fully achieved numerous objectives for the 25 e-government initiatives proposed over the last three years.
"Moreover, the government has done little to market the e-government services it has developed, so few Americans are even aware of them and even fewer use them," PPI said in a statement.
The group added that only 8 percent of Americans have visited Recreation.gov, and only 5 percent have been to Benefits.gov.
"The administration itself has failed to make a serious commitment to transforming the federal government through information technology," PPI said.
