Action Item: Draft Executive Order Would Promote Election Disclosure, Call the President!

The Center for Media and Democracy's PR Watch reports on a proposed Executive Order that would require more detail on funding sources used in political campaigns. This regulation would lead to less secret spending on behalf of corporate interests through front groups, such as Karl Rove's Crossroads GPS which spent almost $17 million attacking Democrats during the 2010 election cycle but did not identify its donors. In fact, over 46% of spending in that election was entirely secret. This order would help bring more transparency to elections and I just made the call to the White House but, alas, the comment line is only monitored M-F 9am-5pm, so I'll try again on Monday morning.
