2009 Appropriations Requests....

Congressman Roscoe Bartlett (R-6-MD) released a list of his funding requests for the Fiscal Year 2009 Federal Budget. “I am proud of my requests. With greater public interest and the support of Republicans to reform the Congressional budget process, I am again this year releasing the requests for funding that I have submitted.” My domestic and defense requests are attached.

Congressman Bartlett added, “Each year I am grateful that I can apply more than twenty years of engineering experience along with my sixteen years on the House Armed Services, Science and Small Business Committees to make requests for additional federal funding not included in the President’s Budget that will contribute to meet national goals and provide value to the taxpayers.”

As a member of the Armed Services Committee, and the Ranking Member of the Seapower and Expeditionary Forces Subcommittee, the majority of Congressman Bartlett’s requests are defense-related. Congressman Bartlett is also one of three scientists in the Congress.

All requests that Congressman Bartlett makes are thoroughly reviewed through the committee and house processes. Funding for specific projects and the amount of funding will not be finalized until appropriations bills are signed into law.
