Congress established the “Open World Leadership Center” in Dec. 2000 as a permanent, independent entity, unaccountable to government oversight.
The “Center of the Open World” has brought in over “27,000 young global leaders to engage in and interact with Members of Congress, Congressional staff” and federal agencies.
Spies are selected from that applicant pool. Their average age is 37 years old.
