In the recent February 4 edition of Virginia Public Access Project's (VPAP) findings, you may research what legislators received what gifts in what amount, and who gave them. You may also discover who's been taking trips financed by special interest groups and/or lobbyists. There is also a list of publicly financed trips and conferences the members of Virginia's General Assembly attended.
On February 24, VPAP will honor the Sunshine Caucus at its third annual open house in Richmond. The public is invited to stop by, meet VPAP board members and staff, and share your ideas for making disclosure work. The Sunshine Caucus is made up of General Assembly members and statewide officials who provide financial support for VPAP's work to make campaign finance information more transparent. The open house will be Tuesday, February 24 from 8 to 11 am in the General Assembly Building, 5th Floor West Conference Room.
