Here’s the earmark tally on the “bipartisan agreement” on government funding that passed the House last week, courtesy of the National Taxpayers Union:

Here’s a partial list of Republican earmarks:

  • $725M Everglades Restoration (water/environment) – Rep. Brian Mast (R-FL)
  • $374.6M F-35 Engine Repair Facility (military construction) – Rep. John Rutherford (R-FL)
  • $262M Multi-Aircraft Paint Facility (military construction) – Rep. John Rutherford (R-FL)
  • $257M Upper Ohio Navigation (navigation/infrastructure) – Rep. Guy Reschenthaler (R-PA)
  • $213M Chickamauga Lock Replacement (lock/dam) – Rep. Chuck Fleischmann (R-TN)
