Weinberg Wants More Transparency In Government

Jay Lassite Reports:

State Senator Loretta Weinberg (D-Ber), has called for more transparency in the state government. Weinberg has sponsored a bill that will make legislator's voting records more accessible to constituents, who are often oblivious to what goes on in Trenton because of the lack of resources on the web. The Philadelphia Enquirer reports that the only way someone can find out how their representative voted on a bill is to call the lawmaker's office. This is not standard for the 21st century. The United States Senate and House of Representatives have every roll call vote since 1989 and 1990 respectively.
