Snowe and Collins key to campaign-finance reform

Are you a fan of campaign finance reform? In the wake of the Citizens United decision by the Supreme Court (which banned limits on corporation spending to influence voters), federal lawmakers are scrambling to force disclosure by those who spend to influence campaigns.

It's called the DISCLOSE Act (another backronym-named piece of legislation), and key to its passage are none other than Maine senators Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins, according to Sam Stein of the Huffington Post.

The two so-called moderates (see how "moderate" they were during the Bush years here) are being lobbied heavily - by organizations that DO have to disclose how much they spend to influence lawmakers.
