The Sunlight Foundation will be ‘haunting’ Sen. Pat Toomey’s Center City offices Monday morning.
Protesting what it calls a lack of transparency around the federal deficit reducing ‘Super Committee,’ the D.C. based good government organization is sending representatives and volunteers to a dozen committee members across the country.

“They’re not doing their part to hold public meetings, disclose campaign contributions and lobbying contacts, or post any of this material online where the public can access it,” said Sunlight organizer Laurenellen McCann, who will be leading the Toomey protest.
If you want to call for more openness from the committee, get the details for tomorrow’s 9 a.m. walk-in here., just a block from the Occupy Philly City Hall demonstrations.
