Homeland Security Earmarks

Here is a list of Congressional and Presidential earmarks that were part of the Homeland Security Appropriations bill approved by the House on Thursday.  The bill now goes to the Senate for final approval.

While there aren't that many earmarks - 186 in all - there will certainly be a lot more money directed to state and local emergency operations centers and more, as FEMA and Homeland Security dole out a lot of grants during the year.

Here is your list, with the names of the projects, how much money is involved and the names of the lamwakers backing it.
