Sunlight Seeker Added to BFIA
By Sam Garchik
Once again, the folks at the Sunlight Foundation have made politics more accountable. Check out the new “Sunlight Seeker,” in the lower left hand side of the blog page. Type in the name of any state or local politician, or donor, for that matter, and the seeker searches Open Secrets (for national donors) and Follow the Money (for state money), as well as the Congresspedia and GovTrack.us. This combines several searches into one easy window, and I encourage you all to use this tool. That being the case, this blog will be taking a week or so off for winter break, but stay tuned come January 2 for more of the same on Blog For Iowa.
