Rep. Candice S. Miller (R-MI): obtained a $486,000 earmark that helped add a 14-foot bike lane within walking distance of her house. "People earmark for all kinds of things," Rep. Miller said when asked about the project. "I'm pretty proud of this; I think I did what my people wanted. Should I have told them, 'We can never have this bike path complete because I happen to live by one section of it'? They would have thrown me out of office."
Hey Leon, can ya send Mr. Perk's over to CD-10?
