My amendment provides for greater disclosure of franked mass mail costs than is currently provided. It requires that the statement, ``this mass mailing was prepared, published and mailed at taxpayer expense'' be printed on each mass mailing. It requires that on a quarterly basis the total number of pieces and the total cost of such mass mailings sent by each Member of Congress be disclosed to the public. It also provides for piece and cost comparisons based on the number of addresses that are in each district.
