Lawmakers today released the last in a series of Year 2000 "report cards," giving the federal government an overall grade of B-plus for its efforts to correct the computer date problem. The report card rated the progress made by 24 federal agencies. Most received a grade of A-minus or better. Twelve agencies, including the Social Security Administration and the Energy Department, received an A. The Justice Department received a grade of D, making it the only agency to score below a C.
