A Blogging Marathon About Campaign Finance
If campaign finance law is your passion, then The Club For Growth blog should be on your list of places to visit this week, at least until the planned House vote on a campaign finance bill.
Why? Club blogger Andy Roth has the answer: "Barring any major surprises ... we're going to blog only about 527 reform until the fateful vote scheduled for Wednesday takes place. We anticipate that will be roughly 60 hours from now."
The debate is about a bill, H.R. 513, that would change the campaign reporting rules for so-called 527 groups, nonprofits that get their designation from the section of the tax code that defines them. Roth lamented that the issue is not getting more press.
He certainly will be doing his part to see that it does. He posted three entries within about an hour-and-a-half this morning, including a link to coverage at Capitol Report, the blog written by Tim Chapman of Townhall.com.
He also noted that, like the club, the Council for Citizens Against Government Waste will be using the vote on the legislation to compile annual rankings for lawmakers.
