According to Republican sources on the Hill, President Obama may be days away from signing an Executive Order that would make many provisions of the failed DISCLOSE Act law by fiat. As we reported last month, the order would require all companies that sign contracts with the federal government to report on the personal political activities of their officers and directors.

The White House claims the EO would make the federal government more transparent. But a quick look at who Obama chose to exempt from the EO shows this is false: unions that sign collective bargaining contracts with the federal government would be exempt from the “disclosure” requirements. The clear intent of this bill is to suppress speech and punish Obama’s enemies.

I want the GOP nominee to commit to repealing/overturning EVERY SINGLE ONE of the EO’s Obama has issued.

I don’t know how much angrier I can get and still function.

Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.) was absent the day of the vote and has told watchdogs he will vote in favor of the bill, so supporters need to flip just one of Maine’s senators to break the filibuster.

Collins and Snowe voted no in July. The Democrats have changed nothing in the bill to address their concerns.

Fingers crossed here that the Maine ladies hold firm.

But stay diligent, this campaign finance bill has huge carve out for unions and special interests, but could cripple donations from grassroots folks like us.
