Effective July 7, 2004, GAO's name changed to the Government Accountability Office.

"Congress asks GAO to study the programs and expenditures of the federal government. GAO, commonly called the investigative arm of Congress or the congressional watchdog, is independent and nonpartisan. It studies how the federal government spends taxpayer dollars. GAO advises Congress and the heads of executive agencies ... about ways to make government more effective and responsive. GAO evaluates federal programs, audits federal expenditures, and issues legal opinions."

Until July 7, 2004, the Government Accountability Office was known as the General Accounting Office.
