we should eliminate PORK injected into EVERY bill that goes through congress ... that would shorten the bill, AND reduce spending in one fell swoop ... and while we're at it make it mandatory that EVERY congressman/woman be on the floor during EVERY session, not screwing off somewhere waiting to show up and vote for their pet pork projects

This hiding it by burying something deep in a totally unrelated bill is bullshit.
And while we're at it, none of this voting "Present" bullshit either. Grab your balls (or pussy as the case may be), take a stand and vote "Yea" or "Nay".
same reason legal assistants do research work for lawyers while the lawyers are out playing with providers
