Rep. Porter reintroduces legislation based in Moonlight's research

Congresswoman Katie Porter (D-CA) reintroduced her Transparency in Taxpayer-Funded Travel Act with Rep. Jason Crow (D-CO) to expand disclosure requirements when Congressmembers travel using taxpayer dollars.

Last year, Moonlight Foundation revealed government officials exploited lax reporting rules to violate the public’s trust. Porter’s bill would prevent Representatives from hiding the details of their travel from their constituents.
