of incoming Democrat leaders and probable House Appropriations
Subcommittee chairs for the 110<SUP>th</SUP> Congress and the
amount of pork they helped secure for their states in fiscal
years 2005 and 2006. The totals include only those
projects that were originally added to the House versions of
the annual appropriations bills. These are the projects
that can most likely be attributed to the representatives in
question. As such, they are conservative estimates and
do not include projects that the representative might have
added behind closed doors during conference negotiations.
