John Barrasso actually said...

"This language is somewhat confusing. There is no process or method for determining whether or not a transfer would increase the deficit."

"The process that funds these projects lacks transparency and that the bill leaves key terms undefined."

"The bottom line is that some States win under this bill; others simply lose."

"Money goes in, but rarely does the money come out. Congress uses the funds as slush funds to cover deficit spending."
