All (except for those last minute sneak ins) of them can be found in the bill if you study it. Just drop down to about page 140 and beyond to see what pork you can find, there is pork all threw it but a lot seems to start around there … leave a comment with your find and I’ll add it to the list … I’ve got REAL work to do … you know the stuff that pays, so I can pay taxes and pay for pork.
Here’s a tiny, tiny bit of what I and others have found …
