House Pig Party* members toss us a crumb.

Voting 245-171, lawmakers approved an internal rule change requiring
earmarks -- isolated and localized spending measures -- and their sponsors be
disclosed in every type of bill, the Washington Post reports.

[...]

Like all rule changes, the disclosure requirement adopted Thursday will
expire at the end of the year.


A crumb that expires at the end of the year, no less. But it's more than the Pig Party Senate has done.

*Pig Party - The political party that passes itself off as two parties, the Republicans and Democrats, both of which are quite fond of pork.
