Hill staffer Tom Jones is going through the omnibus spending bill with a fine-tooth comb, and Twittering his earmark findings, including:* $200,000 for “Tattoo Removal Violence Prevention Outreach Program,” pg. 283;* Maine lobster earmark in the omnibus, pg. 173;* $5.8 million earmark for the “Ted Kennedy Institute for the Senate…for the planning and design of a building & an endowment,” pg. 232;* and National Council of La Raza, $473,000 earmark from Sens. Bingaman and Menendez, pg. 212.
