I’ve heard of the “freshmen fifteen”, but how about the freshmen $70 million? The six freshmen members of congress who have delivered the most in “earmarks” all hail from PA, the USA Today reports and have collectively gotten their name attached to $70 million in taxpayer earmarks.

GrassrootsPA, PA WaterCooler, and the Club for Growth share their appreciation for PA pork.
