List of senators and the number of earmarks they placed in Omnibus spending bill

Well, we all know what most of our senators are having for Christmas… pork.
The Omnibus spending bill will cost us over a trillion dollars, is nearly 2000 pages long, and is filled with over 6,000 earmarks. So here’s a list of Senators, their party affiliation, and how many earmarks they placed in this spending bill.

Complete List;

Republicans are against everything but just incase the bill passes here are the earmarks for my neck of the woods…

1. Tom Price was tweeting about how they won't do earmarks
But his Senate partner Chambliss is rolling in them per this list.

"As we in the Tea Party said, we’ve had enough of the earmarks, spending, overregulation, and high taxes. We expect our senators to do the same. Have republicans not learn their lesson? Enough of the pork and the spending.

Please read Michelle Malkin’s excellent column: Omnibus double whammy: The Dems’ lame-duck land grabs for more on this outrageous bill."
