Mesa, Arizona,
Jan 18, 2008 -
Republican Congressman Jeff Flake, who represents Arizona’s Sixth District, today highlighted a pork project contained in the Omnibus Appropriations bill for fiscal year 2008.
This week’s egregious earmark: $292,000 for the American Airpower Museum in Farmingdale, New York for exhibits and educational programs.
“This is one earmark that taxpayers would like to see shot down,” said Flake.
