Just a few extras in the U.S. Troop Readiness, Veterans' Health, and Iraq Accountability Act, 2007 passed by our Congress. A little "pork barrel" always helps get an unpopular bill passed.
$25,000,000 Spinach
$20,000,000 Emergency Conservation Program
$252,000,000 Milk Income Loss Contract Program
$74,000,000 Peanut Storage Costs
$5,000,000 Businesses breeding, rearing or transporting live fish
$60,400,000 National Marine Fisheries Service
$436,400,000 Subtotal
This isn't all of it. There is more money for hurricane recovery and numerous other "pet" projects. The Democrats need to remember it is the tax payers money not theirs!
“A billion here and a billion there, and pretty soon you're talking real money." Sen. Everett Dirksen (R-IL, Dec'd)
Don't re-elect incumbents!
