The Big Earmarks Spreadsheet, Part III

Here are all the earmark requests.

We've compiled all of the individual requests for special appropriations in the federal budget from Democratic Reps. David Price, Brad Miller, Bob Etheridge, Larry Kissell, G.K. Butterfield, Mike McIntyre, Heath Shuler and Mel Watt, and Republican Reps. Walter Jones and Howard Coble.

(As noted previously, Republican Reps. Sue Myrick, Virginia Foxx and Patrick McHenry did not request any earmarks.)

Some of the spending is for national programs, such as Teach for America or new Virginia-class submarines. Watchdog groups do not consider such requests to be earmarks. We have labeled them "National" under the Scope column.

Where an earmark was requested by more than one member of Congress, we have added them in the Member2, Member3 etc. columns. When they asked for different amounts, we gave each request its own row, but subtracted the smaller request in Column P.

Minus national requests and duplicates, the North Carolina delegation's 545 earmark requests total $1.5 billion in proposed spending.
