Remembering Dodd in headlines
By The Sunlight Foundation Reporting Group
Considering the year Sen. Chris Dodd had in 2009, it’s perhaps not all that surprising he’s stepping down from the Senate. Some headlines–most from Connecticut news organizations–quickly culled from Lexis-Nexis, remind one of the importance of the press in covering Congress, and that informed voters are really the only ethics committee that Congress needs:
Dodd refinancing 2 personal Countrywide loans (Associated Press) Feb. 2
Dodd to Offer Stimulus Amendment on Executive Compensation (CongressWatch) Feb. 5
DODD TO RETURN CONTRIBUTIONS; MONEY FROM DISGRACED FINANCIER STANFORD TO BE DONATED TO CHARITY; FRAUD CASE FALLOUT (Hartford Courant) Feb. 20
REAL ESTATE DEAL CRITICIZED; SENATOR HELPED WALL STREET EXECUTIVE GET A PARDON IN 2001; GOP ASSAILS DODD (Hartford Courant) March 10
The Sunlight Foundation Reporting Group is part of the Sunlight Foundation, a nonprofit, nonpartisan Washington, D.C.-based organization that uses cutting-edge technology and ideas to make government transparent and accountable.
