Project of The Sunlight Foundation Project of Taxpayers for Common Sense

PLEASE NOTE: EarmarkWatch is an experimental distributed research project that contains data for Fiscal Year 2008 earmarks from the House and Senate Labor-HHS-Education bills and the 2008 House Defense Bill.

It does not contain 2009 earmarks. Congress released earmark disclosures for an omnibus bill that included three of the twelve regular appropriations bills—Defense, Homeland Security, and Military Construction/Veterans Affairs—for fiscal year 2009.

A downloadable spreadsheet listing those earmarks is available from Taxpayers for Common Sense (xls).

Once again we find our elected officials submitting requests for monies that have not been planned for. It is funny, we can't get EMERGENCY MONEY to Katrina victims. Emergency Money for Emergency Situations. This is what the line item requests should be used for. Not to fill gaps or make up for cuts that were made to budgets earlier. PLAN and JUSTIFY the dollars within budgets.
Bonuses , Benefits and Stock Dividends should be limited in relation to companies that are given contracts from our NOT FOR PROFIT GOVERNMENT.
