Tell Your Senators: Support a Permanent Earmark Ban

We commend Sens. Toomey and McCaskill for their principled stand to permanently end earmarks, and encourage you to support this legislation, too. Will you email your Senators right now and ask them to support this critical bill?

The current ban on earmarks is only temporary. If this important legislation does not pass, we will be right back in the earmark mess – where politicians waste our hard-earned dollars on pork-barrel projects.

This is a bipartisan effort and we really need your help.

Earmarks are almost always a waste of money and adds to our deficit which is out of control. You should support legislation to ban earmarks permanently. Do what we elected you to do. Support the people in Florida. So, vote to ban earmarks.

Ban Earmarks now. Government is not suppose to be run this way. The wording of Specific bills should be written in plain language - so everyone can understand and comply.

I have to live on a budget because I live on social security. If I have to budget my money so should the government.
