Congressional Website updates

2004-09-05 19:56:56.217802+02 by petronius 0 comments

Think you have problems keeping your websites up to date? According to the relevant sections (scroll down to Section C, Paragraph 1) of the McCain-Feingold act, Congressfolk are restricted as to the types of updates permissible on their own websites, due to the 60-day silent period on unrestricted political advertising before the election. They can make "technical corrections", add press releases, or reprint material already in the Congressional records. Unless, of course, if they are runing unopposed, when the sky's the limit.
