Picture this: A major corporation wins a government contract for services like weapons manufacturing or setting up surveillance systems. That contract makes the corporation billions of your tax dollars.

Then, that corporation secretly spends big money to help elect (or re-elect) -- you guessed it -- the very lawmakers that influence decisions about government contracts in the first place. And no one has to disclose a cent.

Sounds illegal right? It isn’t. This secret spending is all possible thanks to a single loophole in election law.

Corporations that receive government contracts can secretly funnel untold sums to help elect (and re-elect) the very same lawmakers that may influence who is awarded government contracts.

The good news? President Obama can close that loophole with the stroke of a pen.

With a single executive order, President Obama can require every single government contractor - Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Merck, Haliburton, the whole nine yards - to disclose every cent they spend on elections.

Let’s make it happen: urge the President to sign an executive order requiring federal contractors to disclose their political spending.
