Who is the Secret Holder?
August 29, 2006 12:17 PM

Posted at Cave of the Curmudgeon:

Porkbusters Update - There is a current list of those who have not yet denied their involvement in putting a secret hold (however that works) on the proposed bill for government transparency of spending:
"Senators Tom Coburn and Barak Obama have proposed S.2590, legislation that would create a single website with access to information on nearly all recipients of federal funding. The bill cannot proceed, however, because one or more Senators placed a "secret hold" on it.

Who is the secret holder? We want to know, and we want your help finding out. Call your Senator, and ask them to go on the record denying that they placed the hold. Then e-mail Porkbusters and let us know what they said! Senators who issue denials will be removed from the suspect list --- and those who do not, won't!"
But what if they lie? It's been known to happen!
