Little Won Point And Won His Point By A Big Vote
Congressman Ed Little of the Second District blocked an irrigation bill that would have let the government waive liens on land tied to government water projects. He argued the move threatened taxpayer debts, warned of constitutional limits for irrigating districts, and led a decisive 278 to 53 roll call to strike the enacting clause, saving about seventy million dollars. The item notes his rare success against a committee bill and mentions elephant tusks used for billiard balls.
