Anti-Exchangers Bypass Disclosure

A stealthy campaign of mailers, radio ads and computer-generated phone calls against the state health insurance exchange bill that’s up for a vote in the House today was designed to slip through gaps in Idaho’s sunshine laws, Idaho Statesman reporter Dan Popkey reports — prompting calls to tighten the reporting laws. Chad Inman, head of Gem State Tea Party, told Popkey, “”No, I’m not disclosing a dime. That’s the beauty of it.” GOP political consultant Lou Esposito will have to disclose his PAC activity - but not until Jan. 31, 2013. You can read Popkey’s full report here / Via Eye on Boise.

Question: Can you trust individuals who work hard to avoid disclosure and transparency?
