Official U.S. government resources
When a decision involves the law, insurance or your money, the answer should ultimately come from the source. These are the official sites our editors use to verify every guide on this network — bookmark them, and be suspicious of any site that imitates them.
On September 29, 2026 the government launched America.gov — a single, AI-assisted entry point for federal services, built on executive order 14432. Agencies are integrating services into it in phases: passport renewal and Medicare enrollment are among the first transactions planned. The classic USA.gov remains online. One caution: whenever a new official portal appears, impostor sites follow. The real one is exactly america.gov — check the address bar before entering any personal information.
Start here — the government front doors
Two official entry points to the federal government. America.gov is the newest: a single, conversational way to reach federal services.
The new single point of entry for federal services (launched September 2026). Ask questions in plain language; passport renewal, Medicare enrollment and more are moving here.
The long-running official guide to government information and services, with Spanish-language versions of most pages.
Law and workplace rights
Primary sources for the topics Counsel covers — read the law itself, not a summary of a summary.
The text of every federal bill and law, plus the legislative record. The authoritative source for what a statute actually says.
The federal judiciary — court finder, rules, and statistics on bankruptcy and civil cases.
Workplace discrimination and harassment: what federal law protects, how to file a charge, deadlines that apply.
Wages, overtime, leave and workplace safety rules, including state-by-state minimum wage lookups.
Immigration and citizenship forms, case status and green-card renewal.
Insurance and health coverage
Where enrollment actually happens, and the agencies that police the market.
The ACA Marketplace. Compare plans, check subsidy eligibility and enroll during open or special enrollment periods.
Medicare plan comparison, enrollment windows and coverage rules straight from the agency that runs the program.
The association of state insurance regulators. Look up a licensed insurer or a complaint index; insurance is regulated state by state, and this is the regulators’ own body.
Official National Flood Insurance Program site — flood risk maps and policy pricing.
Money, taxes and credit
The agencies Ledger cites most — taxes, credit, investing and consumer protection.
Tax forms, withholding calculators, Free File and the authoritative word on credits and deductions.
Mortgage and credit rules, complaint database, and plain-language explainers on loans and debt collection.
Investor.gov for beginner protections, EDGAR for fund prospectuses — verify any investment product here.
Benefits statements, retirement estimators and my Social Security account.
CPI and inflation data — the numbers behind any real-return calculation.
Interest-rate decisions and consumer credit data that move mortgage and savings rates.
How we use government sources
Works of the U.S. federal government are generally not copyrighted (17 U.S.C. § 105), and we reuse that freedom carefully: our guides summarize official rules in plain language and link to the agency page as the source, rather than pasting full documents. We never reproduce official seals or logos, and nothing on this network implies government endorsement — Omni Mundi Compendium is an independent publisher with no affiliation to any agency listed above. Where state law dominates (insurance, family law, property), we say so and point to the state regulator.
