CLC Transparency Panel

21 September, 2008

I apologize for the sporadic posting lately- I took a brief vacation, and spent some time in Las Vegas to attend the Conservative Leadership Conference, which included a lot of transparency discussion of tactics and tools.

CLC panelists took advantage of their platform to promote their transparency resources. I have listed a few of those below:

Transparent Nevada
Americans for Tax Reform
Missouri Accountability Portal
Ballotpedia
Sunshine Review

Other highlights from CLC were presentations by the Leadership Institute, John Fund, Congressman Shadegg, Thomas Keene, and an amazing performance by The Cactus Cuties.

Congratulations to Michael Brogkorb from Minnesota Democrats Exposed, winner of the Conservative Blogger of the Year award for his work to provide transparency regarding Al Franken’s tax documents.

Thank you to Chuck Muth of Citizen Outreach for hosting the conference. Can’t wait to do it all again next year!

    Thank you for highlighting us in your post. However, the link for Americans for Tax Reform goes to http://www.usaspending.gov, the federal spending portal for grants and contracts.

    Americans for Tax Reform recently launched the Center for Fiscal Accountability, accessible at http://www.fiscalaccountability.org. CFA promotes transparency, accountability and fiscal restraint. Check it out and sign up for our newsletter.
