Inside Bay Area - Tri-Valley Herald - Local News: "Those negotiations were instigated by Radanovich and Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein, exemplifying how legislators can shape events even without legislation. In January, as a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Feinstein will be at center stage for the Supreme Court confirmation hearings of Judge Samuel Alito. Radanovich has his own responsibilities as chairman of the House water and power subcommittee, as well as some more vexing personal priorities.
On March 8, with television cameras rolling, Radanovich joined Pennsylvania Republican Sen. Rick Santorum to unveil their '1 percent plan' for boosting U.S. charitable giving. They proposed a congressional resolution urging Americans to increase charitable contributions to an average of 3 percent of their income.
Santorum introduced his Senate resolution that same day. Radanovich did not. Instead, by the fall Radanovich was saying he was not sure when he might act."
