Appropriations?

I remember that one of the criticisms that Wally ran into in the last election was that he wasn't effective in getting Federal money for his district. California's 2nd District has levees, roads, schools, bridges, and all the other things that taxes pay for. It's not like we're asking for a bridge to nowhere. The Oroville Mercury-Register Online ran a story about how Doolittle (R CA-4) got $450,000 for projects in Oroville. I'm not sure if the last graph was a dig at Wally or what.

It couldn't be determined Wednesday whether Rep. Wally Herger, R-Chico, had inserted money for local projects in the appropriations bill.

I don't know about you, but that sounds like something a staffer in Wally's office might know...I'm just sayin'.
