Pay Attention to Earmarks!

I’m so glad to see this headline:

House Ethics Panel Probes Earmarks by 7 Lawmakers

I only skimmed through the article right now as I’ve got to start work on another project but plan to review it later. Here at the lawmakers under review:

  • James Moran (D., Va.)
  • C.W. Bill Young (R., Fla.)
  • Peter Visclosky (D., Ind.)
  • Norm Dicks (D., Wash.)
  • Todd Tiahrt (R., Kan.)
  • Marcy Kaptur (D., Ohio)

The lobbying company in question is the PMA Group, a company whose offices were raided by the FBI and dissolved afterwards.
