The Marine Mammal Stranding Center in Brigantine, NJ is today’s winner, pocketing $142,000 from the FY2009 Omnibus Appropriations Bill signed by President Obama today. The cash is for the construction of a marine education facility, thanks to James Saxton (R), former U.S. Representative from New Jersey’s 3rd District, from 1993-2008. This information is courtesy of Taxpayers for Common Sense. Unfortunately, you can’t write or call his office to complain about this earmark, because Mr. Saxton doesn’t work there anymore.
