Earmark Reform Pledge - Update

Posted on November 8, 2007 by Libby Wright

One of the best friends of taxpayers, Senator Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) just signed the CCAGW earmark reform pledge.  That brings the list of signatories up to eight members of Congress.  They are: Senators Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) and Tom Coburn (R-Okla.), and Reps. John Campbell (R-Calif.), Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.), Jeb Hensarling (R-Texas), Tom Price (R-Ga.), Paul Ryan (R-Wisc.), and  John Shadegg (R-Ariz.).  Now we only have 527 to go!  Who’s next?

    Love your new blog! Boy, the pork keeps coming. Did you read about the Tom Daschle pork project? Even when these clowns leave Congress, they get their pork! You can read about it here: http://www.house.gov/list/press/tx05_hensarling/rsc/110607LaborHHSVetsConfReport.html

    I wouldn’t expect my Senator Bond or my Rep Graves to sign this, maybe Ms. McCaskill will continue to surprise and lend her signature.
