Ben’s Funding Priorities

As part of the on-going changes to the annual appropriations process, senators no longer request funding for specific projects or “earmarks.”  However, I am able to provide the Appropriations subcommittees with funding recommendations for programs of special importance, especially those that touch the lives of Marylanders.
