NO SIGNAL

2 officials not speaking on topics their donors fund

A silence is not proof of wrongdoing — it is the absence of the public record we would expect from someone whose donors have material interests in a topic. Each card pairs the topic with the donor entities funding the official, and shows how long the silence has run.
