Blunt, Akin and Luetkemeyer may have ignored earmark disclosure rules
For the first time, US House members are required to publicly disclose their earmark requests. The deadline to do so came and went on Saturday, and according to Taxpayers for Common Sense, Roy Blunt, Todd Akin and Blaine Luetkemeyer had not complied as of 1:45 this afternoon.
Following up on TCS's research, Blunt and Akin have definitely posted their requests on their websites -- we don't know if TCS missed the info, or if their documents were added after being called out on The Huffington Post for noncompliance, but they're up now.
- Blunt's requests for appropriations are available on his website.
- Akin's requests are on the front page of his website now.
We haven't had any luck finding Luetkemeyer's list of earmark request yet -- if it's there and we've missed it, please leave a note in comments or drop us a line.
Links to view the requests from the full delegation can be found after the break.
