Welcome to the Pork Report!

The FY 2008 Democrat appropriations bills include $24.7 billion to fund more than 12,000 earmarks.* Republicans recently united to eliminate one such earmark for a museum in New York dedicated to the 1969 Woodstock Festival. The Pork Report website highlights other examples of irresponsible spending in this year's appropriations bills.
