Alabama Senate in Filibuster Over Campaign Finance Disclosure

This is one filibuster I can support.

The Alabama Senate shut down in a filibuster Tuesday over legislation that would require organizations to reveal their contributors when they run ads to support or oppose legislation or distribute voter guides in elections.

Alabama Policy Institute President Gary Palmer had a nice editorial on this in Sunday's Huntsville Times. (The Times, on the other hand, took the opposite, anti-free speech, pro-incumbent position.)
