At Heritage’s Bloggers Briefing on Tuesday, LeBaron presented a trailer of the film and took questions about his drive to get Congress to pass a law that requires the absolute final version of a bill (or allocation of funds) be posted on the Internet well in advance of a final vote. LeBaron is the executive director of the group Honor in Office, which he founded to promote the film.

His documentary chronicles his journey through North Dakota in 2010, as he attempted to get his proposal on a statewide ballot referendum. A California native, LeBaron chose to take his campaign to North Dakota because he thought the state gave him the best hope of getting his proposal on the ballot that year. In the end, though, he only got 2,000 of the roughly 15,000 signatures necessary.

But he isn’t giving up. From July 17-27, Honor in Office is planning to hold a rally for political reform in Washington, D.C., as LeBaron takes his fight to the national stage.
