I listed myself as a Democrat because that's how I am registered but you know my focus will always be to strive to look at things from an independent viewpoint and once legislation is finally listed (The General Assemblies fault not BillHop) it will be able to be commented on by everyone.

During the day, I work as a legislative director to a state rep in the Texas House. BillHop has been a side project of mine for almost a year now. A friend/ colleague of mine with experience in public policy also helps out with the project on the side. If you want to know more about me and the philosophy behind the site, check out this article on the project posted in the Austinist: http://www.austinist.com/archives/2006/12/05/the_revolution_will_be_computerized_austinist_interviews_billhopcom_creator_damien_brockmann.php We are encouraging folks with diverse perspectives to join regardless of how they classify themselves. We are building a site that not only includes people with different sets of ideological beliefs, but also individuals with a wide array of experience and knowledge in different fields of interest. The more diverse the contributions to BillHop, the more interesting the site becomes. To answer the question, “Who are they?”:
