I was in Reno, Nevada yesterday with former Nevada Common Cause Board Chair Jim Hulse and a group of activists who were calling on Senator Jim Ensign to explain his obstruction of a bill to require U.S. Senators to tell us who they are taking money from -- now.

Currently, Senators file campaign finance disclosure reports on paper.  The paper reports are scanned into a computer, printed out, and then retyped to be placed on the Federal Election Commission website.  This process takes about four months and costs about $250,000 in taxpayer dollars.
