Coburn to Speak on Earmarks at Heritage Today at 1 PM

Sen. Tom Coburn will join Heritage president Ed Feulner today at 1 PM in our Lehrman Auditorium to speak on "The Battle to Control Earmarks and Restore Limited Government." Here's the event blurb:

Federal spending continues to surge out of control. When it comes to exercising its fiduciary responsibilities, our national government seems paralyzed – unable to set clear priorities, identify and eliminate wasteful spending, or say “no” to a multitude of pet projects hidden in budgetary earmarks. Failure to put our federal finances in order is a fundamental threat to our economy, and a growing and intrusive government endangers our personal freedoms. Join us as Senator Tom Coburn outlines the transformative steps necessary for putting our fiscal house in order.

If you're in the area, please do join us. And if not, you can watch live online here.

We'll have quotes here following the event.
