DOVER — All Sen. Karen E. Peterson wants is an open debate on her bill to open the General Assembly’s inner workings to public scrutiny.

I don’t follow the local stuff half as much as I should. But on Friday there was a brillian piece by the NJ blaming the Dems and saying the GOP is trying like hell to open our government. They were more than happy to tell you if someone was an R or a D in that article.

Is Peterson a D or an R? The article doesn’t tell you until the 2nd Paragraph.

Peterson’s Senate Bill 4 would end 23 years of closed-door traditions that have taken root in the General Assembly since 1985, when it exempted itself from the Freedom of Information Act that it passed in 1977. All other legislative bodies in the state, from Wilmington City Council to the tiny Viola Town Commission, must do the majority of their business in public. But not the General Assembly.

“Sen. Adams had promised me in June that Senate Bill 4 will be discussed in caucus, and it will get a committee hearing,” Peterson said. “Long story short, he reneged.”
