Washington, DC – As part of an ongoing series, the Club for Growth PAC today highlighted another wasteful earmark supported by former Congressman Todd Tiahrt. Tiahrt is challenging incumbent Congressman Mike Pompeo (R-KS), who has been endorsed by the Club’s PAC and opposes wasteful earmarks.
Today, the Club for Growth PAC noted as a member of Congress, Todd Tiahrt voted to spend $50,000 on a city-owned pool in Banning, California
“I’m sure everyone would like a new pool in their city, but why did Todd Tiahrt think Banning, California should receive special priority over a city in Kansas?” said Club for Growth Spokesman Barney Keller. Todd Tiahrt voted for this waste of federal tax dollars because he’s never met a spending project he didn’t like. Todd Tiahrt will have lots of time to spend at the pool after election day, when Republicans re-nominate Mike Pompeo for Congress.”
