Another Radical Hero

What’s Senator Mitch McConnell hiding?

He is hiding his and other senators’ campaign finance information by blocking legislation that would require electronic reporting.

As Senate Minority Leader, he is also hiding the identity of an anonymous Republican senator whose objections to “The Senate Campaign Disparity Act” (S. 223) have stymied efforts to give the public more information on sources of campaign contributions in the Senate.

The irony in this situation is that there is a secret objection to legislation that would generate more transparency for senators.
