How will voters ever know who’s behind this group and what it aims to do if it “won’t have to disclose its donors?!!!!!”

And therefore the review most worth reading.

A little more alarm about this trend would be welcome.

A new law prohibits the state from requiring nonprofits to disclose the personal information of their supporters, protecting Americans’ First Amendment right to free association. reason.com/2025/06/02/nev…

You ever notice how the self-appointed "good government" folks are the same ones pushing to weaponize federal agencies and use lawfare against their opponents? The FEC offers a great example:

Candidates cannot accept "dark money" so this would just be an attempt to censor speech about Democratic primaries and control the information available to voters. It's anti-free speech and anti-democracy.

A happy ending to this story: Governor Lombardo signed the donor privacy bill into law! unitedforprivacy.com/nevada-becomes…

When a Democrat was president, they wanted more presidential control over the FEC. Now that Trump is president, they want the opposite. That's not "reform." That's being a partisan hack. washingtonexaminer.com/restoring-amer…

Our independent, nonpartisan NGOs vs. Their corrupting, political dark money groups

3rd graf complains the bill is hard to understand for people who never deal with campaign finance laws. 19th graf admits current law is unclear to everybody. Sounds like a step in the right direction!

If you look out at the current world in which power is distributed among many institutions and individuals with differing views and interests, & yet you're insisting everyone who disagrees with you is bought-and-paid-for by "oligarchs", you might be a conspiracist.

More states should follow Kansas' lead and review their old laws to make sure privacy rights and free speech are protected, as the Constitution and Supreme Court require. unitedforprivacy.com/kansas-joins-m…

I'm very pleased with the way this piece turned out. It's startlingly easy to find out names & street addresses of contributors to state political campaigns. A major #freespeech #privacy threat that needs to be addressed, especially as political violence is intensifying.

One way to lower the temperature: make it easier for people to support the causes they believe in without becoming targets for extremists. realclearpolicy.com/articles/2024/…
