Ben Ray's Earmarks

Ben Ray Lujan at the AFSCME candidate forum last year
My story in today's New Mexican about Rep. Ben Ray Lujan's $66.9 million in earmark approprations can be found HERE.

Lujan's entire list can be found on his own Web site HERE.

As for New Mexico's other Congressmen, Rep. Martin Heinrich's earmark list is HERE and Rep. Harry Teague's is HERE.

The Sunlight Foundation's list of all -- well most -- Congress members' earmark requests is HERE.

  1. I checked out all three links. Content aside, Lujan's web page needs fixing as the right column covers up part of the column that describes the appropriation. Copied and pasted into MSW, it is a table. The table width is 8.6", which explains the problem, but once the table width is decreased, it is OK.

    The other two are in .pdf format. Heinrich's is the worst, looks like size 6 font, almost unreadable. Did someone who used to work for the SOS design this?

    Harry Teague's, while in .pdf, is very readable. Go Harry!
