New Facebook App Lets You Track Your Representatives’ Cash

If you’re already a fan of OpenSecrets.org, how about making it official on Facebook? Not only do we have a fan page where you can leave comments, ask questions and engage in money-in-politics discussions, now you can add our OpenSecrets app to your own Facebook page and follow the special interests trying to curry favor with your legislators. Just enter your zip code and your congressional representatives will show up in your profile, including the total they’ve raised in the 2010 election cycle and the name of their top donor.

We tweet, too! Be sure to follow us on Twitter for helpful links to our data relating to the news of the day, Capital Eye alerts and comments on disclosure measures and other money-in-politics issues.

Here’s an example of what the app will look like on your Facebook profile:
