    2009 House Bill 4311 (Appropriations: Supplemental budget )

    Introduced in the House on February 17, 2009, to appropriate $14.8 million in additional Corrections spending to compensate for a $5 million over-estimate in the amount of revenue that might be extracted from parole, probation and "tether" program participant fees, to fund prison "storekeeper" positions that previously were to be eliminated but instead will be retained, and to cover a shortfall in funding for off-site prisoner hospital and specialty care

    The vote was 62 in favor, 45 opposed and 3 not voting

    (House Roll Call 403 at House Journal 0)

     How in the world can our politicians justify spending nearly $8,000,000 on subsudies for hores raceing? The rest of the bill makes sense. Could it be a special interest that got this attached to this otherwise good bill? It may be about horses but it smells like pork to me.
