WHO REQUESTED HOUSE EARMARKS. Per my datacrunch (and confirmed by committee):
- 106 House Republicans. That is just under 50% of all H. Republicans.
- 221 House Democrats.
- Just 1 House Democrat did NOT request earmarks - @RepKatiePorter. She adamantly opposes the concept.
@RepKatiePorter Who requested earmarks? Easier to tweet the names of those who did not.

What about USAID workers assigned overseas?
- Per email, the agency "intends" to launch a program to pay for their return home, if they wish.
