The bill that you mention is a perfect example. We do not need earmarks like this. We knocked all the earmarks out. We survived just fine. Members survived just fine. They were reelected. They came back. That was the only Labor-HHS bill I have ever voted for because it did not have earmarks. We finally got it right. We ought to continue it.
