Rachel Silber

California State Auditor

We are the independent oversight arm of the California State Legislature, and the custodians of California's Whistleblower Hotline. When a legislator or a member of the public reports concerns about another state or local government entity, our Performance/Policy Evaluators step in to conduct investigations, discover evidence, publicly report the truth, and recommend changes. When it's time for state and local government to account for billions of taxpayer dollars spent, and when high-risk government financial systems need improvement, our Financial Auditors conduct some of the worlds largest financial reviews and provide much-needed guidance. We are trusted to produce unbiased, independent, nonpartisan reports that hold government accountable to all Californians.
