Meanwhile here is what Senator Merkley was working on in the Rules Committee. This is from his newsletter of 7/20/22:

"I have spent years raising the alarm and shining a light on dark money in our electoral system—strongly supporting the DISCLOSE Act and working tirelessly over the years to get it passed.

I call upon and urge all my colleagues to support this legislation, put the interests of the American people over those of powerful special interests, and stop billionaires from secretly buying our elections. I won’t stop fighting to restore public trust in our elections and our government."

Senator Merkley is the real deal. He is progressive like Senator Sanders and as dogged as Senator Warren. If he talks, I listen, just like I do with Thom's show and writing.
