    Earmarks are coming back to Congress. House Republicans have voted to overhaul their internal rules to allow their members to seek targeted money for projects back home, joining majority Democrats.http://apne.ws/LMWnAH1

        And they want to accuse the Democrats of passing a bill full of pork.

        Figures the austerity party wants to make sure they can get government cash for their pet projects, but hey a big F-U for the relief package that passed only on reconciliation. Tell me again how we are the ENTITLED.

        I honestly don’t have a problem with this - within reason. What Mississippi needs is different than what Oregon needs. If you need to uniquely sweeten the pot (& the governing bodies are regulated with it) to get something passed, go for it.

        Of course, Democrats helping Americans in food lines, out of work, in debt, behind in bill, small businesses, schools, cities, all make sense. Plus doing whats needed to fight the pandemic. Republicans realize, they can't just take Big Govt. checks. & Give people nothing.pic.twitter.com/XCZa6PFGHp
