The Need for Single Issue Bills (and Cutting Pork)

Well... It looks like congress has passed yet another $1.7T, 4,155-page monstrosity of an "Omnibus" bill with enough pork in it to feed a nation.  The Michelle Obama Trail in Chicago.  "Ukraine Independence Park" in Washington, DC.  Naming a federal building in San Francisco building after Nancy Pelosi.  Only a mere $1.5M for securing our border.   

As quoted from an article by the Independent Sentinel, here are the most egregious of the out-of-control line items included in this bill:


$410 million towards border security for Jordan, Lebanon, Egypt, Tunisia, and Oman.

$1,438,000,000 for membership in global multilateral organizations, including the UN.

$65 million for salmon.

$3 million for bee-friendly highways, & another $5 million for the salmon.

$65.7 million for international fisheries commissions.

$575 million for “family planning” in areas where population growth “threatens biodiversity.”

$3.6 million for the “Michelle Obama Trail.”

$477k for “antiracist” training from the Equity Institute.

$3 million for the LGBTQ+ museum in NYC.

$1.2 million in “services for DACA recipients.”

$11.33 billion for the FBI.

$1.75 billion for the ATF.

$2.63 billion for US Attorneys, emphasizing J6 prosecutions and domestic terrorism cases.

$26 million for the House of Representatives Office of Diversity and Inclusion.

$286 million in Title X funding, which funds Planned Parenthood.

$400k for the “Racial Justice Improvement Project.”


We've been demanding single issue bills for decades! NO bill should be more than a few pages long. This over 4,000 page bill represents all that is broken with our legislative process.  Who knows what other woke agenda items are hidden in this bill.  

The whole idea of "you've gotta pass the bill to find out what's in it" is absolute hogwash!  This bill puts us up to $31 TRILLION in national debt!  This is absolutely insane.
