  • Hurricane Research is a valuable invest that is well worth $50 million dollars. What is $50 million dollars when our national debt increases $1.4 a day simply because of the interest we owe on it? Don't vote Grayson down for this, realize that the real culprit of wasting money is spending it overseas on our empire and the Federal Reserve.

  • How wrong you are. It's not his "job to bring money back" to his constituents. His job is to represent the constitution. No where does it state that the federal government can steal money from one state and give it to another. That's what is happening here.

    According to your philosophy, Grayson's new slogan could be "Working hard to increase your tax burden"

  • While I applaud Mr. Grayson's view on transparency of government/Federal Reserve this is nothing but pork. NOAA already does everything that this 50million dollar waste will do. Sorry but I have to wonder if this was given as a promise only to gain a vote for Cap and Trade. If so... It's business as usual.

  • thats what he is supposed to do you buffoon. he is supposed to bring back money and create JOBS in his district. a good congressman does that.. a bad one who is lazy just shows up to vote and doesn't lift a finger.

    i am so glad he is my congressman and working so hard.. amazing for a freshman.

    The "pork", and I know Alan likes pork, was a cover for voting for Cap & Trade. Al felt by getting $50 million in pork for his district, it would make the voters accept his "treason" against the voters when their energy bills quadruple.

    Honestly, have you ever seen someone that reminds you more of an over fed pig than this buffoon.

  • PORK!

  • NO TO CAP & TRADE!
