I recently ran across a great website called "YOUCUT". The link is below. If you check out the site, you will find that Connecticut's entire Congressional delegation (Rosa DeLauro, John Larson, Jim Himes, Joe Courtney, and Chris Murphy) voted to continue using your tax dollars to sudsidize long distance travelers who chose Sleeper class tickets on Amtrak train service. Passengers in long-distance first class travel are provided a sleeping room, many with a private toilet and shower, turn-down service, and complimentary entertainment and pre-paid food. If this isn't a classic example of government waste, somebody point it out to me.
Check out the site and sign up for updates and when you get outraged enough, call your Congressman's office and complain. Loud and clear! I'm calling Murphy's office tomorrow.
