| Description | Senate GOP Leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.) said he and his Republican colleagues will discuss an earmark ban when Congress returns to Washington but gave scant support to the proposal.
McConnell, who has voted in the past for a Senate-wide earmark moratorium, is skeptical about banning earmarks just within the Senate GOP conference.
“The problem is it doesn’t save any money,” McConnell said during a Sunday interview on CBS’s “Face the Nation.” |
