The Foundations for Evidence-Based Policymaking Act (Evidence Act) is a United States law that establishes processes for the federal government to modernize its data management practices, evidence-building functions, and statistical efficiency to inform policy decisions. The Evidence Act contains four parts ("titles"), which address evidence capacity, open data (OPEN Government Data Act), and data confidentiality (the reauthorization of the Confidential Information Protection and Statistical Efficiency Act).
