House Republicans say they will reject all earmarks

By Paul Kane
Upping the ante in the battle over which party can be toughest on
special interests, House Republicans Thursday announced their entire
178-member conference would not seek any congressional earmarks this
year, denouncing all of the line-item expenditures as wasteful and
corrupting.

Calling the earmark process "a symbol of a broken Washington," House
Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) said the Republican gambit was a
key step in demonstrating fiscal restraint, even if the move doesn't
lead to an actual reduction in federal spending.

"Republicans took an important step toward showing the American people
we're serious about reform by adopting an immediate, unilateral ban on
all earmarks. But the more difficult battle lies ahead, and that's
stopping the spending spree in Washington that is saddling our
children and grandchildren with trillions of dollars in debt," Boehner
said.

Republicans took the step a day after House Democrats imposed a ban on
earmarks -- which are inserted into the dozen annual bills that fund
the federal government -- that benefit private for-profit companies.
Democrats have left open the ability of securing earmarks for non-
profits and municipalities in their congressional districts, arguing
that the private-sector companies were winning what often amount to no-
bid grants based on their cozy relationships with key lobbyists and
well-timed political donations to senior lawmakers.

The Republican push for completely prohibiting earmarks came after a
lengthy 90-minute debate behind closed doors, which attendees
described as very spirited. Previous GOP efforts to reach such an
agreement have failed, and after the long internal dialogue Thursday,
the Republicans decided against holding a vote and instead simply
approved the measure on a voice vote.

The move will reduce the number of earmark requests. According to
Taxpayers for Common Sense, House Republicans, on their own, accounted
for more than 1,200 of the earmarks, worth $1 billion, that were
included in the funding bills for fiscal year 2010. House Democrats
estimated that their ban on for-profit earmarks would slash 1,000
earmarks.

The battle now shifts to the Senate, where Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.)
announced Thursday he is offering an amendment to forbid all earmark
requests from Congress until the federal deficit is eliminated. "We
need a complete ban on earmarks until our budget is balanced," McCain
said.

The Senate's top officers, including Majority Leader Harry M. Reid (D-
Nev.), Majority Whip Richard J. Durbin (D-Ill.) and Minority Leader
Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), are all current or former members of the
appropriations committees, so securing such a prohibition against any
earmarks might be an uphill fight in the Senate. In a close 2008 re-
election campaign, McConnell campaigned on his ability to bring
federal dollars home to his state. Reid, in a Thursday session with
reporters, did not reject out of hand the chance for some earmark
reform in the Senate.

However, top members of the Senate Appropriations Committee have
issued staunch rejections of any push to rein in their ability to
approve earmarks.

Ha Ha indeed. There are currently 255 house democrats and they
can't pass a damn thing. The GOP is quite useless.

But I'm sure you'll ignore the massive majority the house
dems enjoy and blame the GOP for the democrats inability
to do anything.
