	Irregular Times Rating and Contact Information for Representative Martin Olav Sabo of MN (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Sabo has taken the principled step of formally lending support to H.R., which would put an end to the practice of "extraordinary rendition." This is a practice in which Bush Administration officials send people into the custody of certain nations, knowing full well (some would say intending) that they will be tortured there.
		Sabo has not yet cosponsored H.R., which would provide more information to the public about contacts between lobbyists and politicians, and which would slow down the revolving door of politics in which politicians move into cushy corporate jobs after they retire in exchange for favors.
		Martin Olav Sabo has not yet cosponsored H.R., which would keep members of the Federal Communication Commission from using their appointed positions to censor cable, satellite or internet programs they consider to be indecent.

		Martin Sabo, DFL, and his opponent Jack Uldrich, who is endorsed by both the Republican and Reform parties, approach politics from remarkably similar positions.
		Sabo offered strong opposition to House speaker Newt Gingrich's extremism and after 18 years of service, recalling Sabo in this election would send the wrong message to Washington.
		Uldrich is a strong proponent of the balanced budget amendment, but Sabo's belief that the deficit is a political rather than constitutional issue and should be addressed through political willpower seems to be a more reasoned approach.

	Too Much: June 13, 2005 edition
		Sometime soon, likely next month, a veteran member of Congress from Minnesota, Martin Sabo, will be reintroducing a profoundly important piece of legislation he has been urging his colleagues to take seriously for over a dozen years now.
		That multiple, Sabo explains, approximates the ratio between the minimum wage and the salary of the President of the United States that existed when he first introduced his Income Equity Act legislation.
		But the principle that underlies Sabo's bill — that governments ought not be in the business of subsidizing greed — could be applied throughout the economy, by every level of government.

	Sabo slams liability shield for CAPPS II technology platform
		Martin Olav Sabo (D-Minn.), the ranking Democrat on the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Homeland Security, wrote to DHS Secretary Michael Chertoff June 24 to protest the granting of legal protections in June 2004 to Lockheed Martin Corp.’s Risk Assessment Platform, which was used in CAPPS II.
		Sabo said he is objecting now, a year after Safety Act certification was granted to the risk-assessment platform, because he only recently became aware that Lockheed Martin’s platform is generic and may be utilized in other government programs.
		In the letter, Sabo requests that Chertoff and DHS Privacy Officer Nuala O’Connor Kelly “assess whether Safety Act protection should be afforded to technology that utilizes personal commercial data.” He also asked whether other Safety Act approvals are in the works for additional data-mining technologies.
