More Obama Nominee Ethics Agreements
President Obama's administration came to Washington pledging transparency and accountability in government. The White House has demanded strict new ethics requirements and signed pledges from appointees detailing what they will do to abide by the rules.
But they're not so easy to get your hands on -- so we're publishing them here.
So far we have posted about 60 ethics agreements (and nearly 200 financial disclosures), and now, we're adding 14 more.
New highlights include letters from Gil Kerlikowske, the drug czar, and Regina McCarthy, who will help set air and radiation policy at the Environmental Protection Agency.
Check out the letters. The ones we added this morning are in red. Make sure to let us know if you find anything, too.
Last time, reader Jane Johnson pointed out that Ken Salazar, secretary of the Interior Department, "has up to $200,000 in outstanding debt, a sharp contrast to the many millionaires serving in Obama's Cabinet and on his senior staff."
