Excellent piece in @washingtonpost today by @FEC Commissioner @DaraLind, highlighting how FEC donor disclosure rules written in the 1970s put contributors at risk in the internet age and proposing a common-sense fix that will protect donor privacy:

Many don’t realize that a small political contribution can result in their home address being posted online. In my @washingtonpost op-ed, I explain why Congress must amend the law to protect privacy while preserving transparency. https://t.co/dknKG4X7Ca

This is a thorough overview of our last meeting with Commissioner Dickerson. My favorite part: Lindenbaum said she hadn’t anticipated “blubbering and actual tears.” When the @FEC gets its quorum back, hopefully soon-ish, we will be ready.
The @FEC has entered a de facto shutdown. It can’t enforce or regulate campaign finance laws until President Trump and the U.S. Senate act. Here’s what you should know — and what Federal Election Commission commissioners told me today. In @NOTUSreports:

Today marks the first day I am unable to fly to DC for votes due to travel restrictions ahead of my due date. It shouldn't be this way. Congress must pass my bipartisan resolution to allow Members who are new parents to vote remotely.

Today I released this statement, urging congress to amend FECA to eliminate the public disclosure of contributor street names and street numbers. I urge Congress to maintain the requirement that political committees collect and report the full mailing addresses to the @FEC, but

We must accept the results of this election. Earlier today, I spoke with President Trump and congratulated him on his victory. I told him that we will help him and his team with that transition, and we will engage in a peaceful transfer of power.
