Checking Influence

This summer I had the pleasure of working with the Sunlight Foundation to develop an extension to their amazing Influence Explorer project. Building on work I had done in the past parsing bank transactions, I built a bookmarklet-powered tool that pulls campaign and lobbying data right into your online banking site, so you can see what causes and politicians the businesses you're buy from are supporting.
