Looks like Senator Charles Grassley of Iowa is moving up the food chain.
Specifically, the Senator asked for the following:
- Policies for accepting industry funding and whether or not companies are allowed to place restrictions or provide guidance on how funding will be spent
- Explanations of all restrictions and/or guidance for each transfer of value from industry
- Policies the organizations plan to adopt to ensure transparency of funding in order to provide a greater public trust in the independence of the organization
- Policies on disclosure of outside income by top executives and board members
- Disclosures of outside income filed with the organizations by its top executives and board members
