This is a good starting point. Yes, the "pork" list would be ideal as that is how Stefanik keeps getting re-elected. People complain about her but qualify it with things like, "But we should be grateful for all the funding she got for the hospital" when she probably originally voted against the funding and called those that voted for it "communists." This is the fix we are when it's hard to connect the dots and Repubs can crow about funding they voted against.
