Burris releases his budget requests

Requests by Burris to the Senate Appropriations committee for earmarks.  Part one and part two.

He explains why each one is a good use of taxpayer money. 

Just because he or any other senator requests them does not mean they will be approved and those that are approved will most likely only get a portion of the money requested. 

 For that information we will have to wait til later this summer when the budget is voted on.
