Comments on: Speaker’s Commission Gives Thumbs Up http://PassOpenRecords.Org/2007/06/14/92/ A Movement to Lift the Lid on Pennsylvania Government Sat, 30 Aug 2008 00:51:42 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.2 By: veblen http://PassOpenRecords.Org/2007/06/14/92/#comment-27 veblen Thu, 14 Jun 2007 15:50:53 +0000 http://PassOpenRecords.Org/2007/06/14/92/#comment-27 I think it is important to keep the pressure on our senators and representatives over the summer to reform our Right-To-Know law. A good starting point would be a searchable database which lists all senators and representatives along with where they stand on the specifics of our right to know. For example, it would contain information on: where they stand on flipping the presumption, what entities should be covered, what exceptions should be carved out, what penalties should be imposed, the method of appeal, etc,..... My suggestion, should you have the resources, is for you to put together an online survey to be sent to each of our senators and representatives polling them on these specifics and placing the results on this blog. This database can then be used to mobilize our legislators constituents over the summer to pressure them to pass the strongest possible Right-To-Know law. Is it within your capacity? Keep up the good work. I think it is important to keep the pressure on our senators and representatives over the summer to reform our Right-To-Know law.
