By Erick Posted in Congress — Comments (6)

Congress is considering the war supplemental to provide funding for the troops. While they are debating that legislation and whether or not to slowly bleed the troops to death, here's a quick snapshot of what else the Democrats are trying to get passed in the war supplemental:

? Peanut Storage (pg. 115): $74 million
? Additional Salaries for the House of Representatives (pg. 51): $6.4 million
? Live Fish Transport Across the Canadian Border (pg. 116): $5 million
? FDA Office of Women’s Health (pg. 117): $4 million
? Compensation to Spinach Growers (pg. 112): $25 million
