SPECIAL FEATURE: Links to "member item" lists
April 05, 2006
The Manhattan Institute's Empire Center for New York State Policy has obtained complete lists of legislative and gubernatorial pork-barrel spending--also known as "member items"--for each of the past three years. The documents amount to 1,154 pages, listing 22,980 individual grants totaling just over $479 million. They have been converted into three separate "pdf" files that can be opened with Adobe Acrobat Reader software.
To download one or more of the annual lists, click on the links below:
* 2003 (439 pages, 1.4 MB)
* 2004 (375 pages, 1.1 MB)
* 2005 (340 pages, 1.0 MB)
