Last week, Congress passed a $9 billion Sandy relief bill, but they are also considering a supplemental $51 billion aid package that is loaded with pork and unnecessary spending. Join us on Friday, January 11, at noon ET for our “Lunch with Heritage” Google+ Hangout on the outrageous spending in the Sandy bill.
Our guests are:
Patrick Louis Knudsen, Grover M. Hermann Senior Fellow in Federal Budgetary Affairs, The Heritage Foundation
Matt Mayer, Visiting Fellow, The Heritage Foundation
Dustin Carmack, Government Relations Deputy, Heritage Action for America
Ben Domenech, Fellow at the Heartland Institute; Editor of the Transom
