Cash flow workshop

IRE is continuing its series of campaign finance workshops that combine expert tips on tracking money in politics with IRE's renowned computer-assisted reporting training.

These two-day jam packed sessions called "The Money Trail: Tracking Campaign Cash" are tailored to each locale. Reporters will train with local, state and federal (including presidential) data from their area. Reporters also will learn how to trace the flow of soft money from Washington, D.C., into their states and then how the state spends it.

Past attendees have called the seminar "the most useful session" they've attended. The next workshops will be held in the fall in Chicago and Minneapolis. Check out the session schedule at http://www.campaignfinance.org/ workshopschedule.html on the IRE Web site.
