Earmarks

In the summer of 2010 an article was published by The Seattle Times claiming that former aides of Patty Murray, the senior United States Senator from Washington, were benefiting from earmarks added to defense appropriations bills. Murray added US$57 million in earmarks to the 2011 defense appropriation bill, of which $19.5 million went to clients of her former aides who now work as lobbyists. According to the article, SAFE Boats International paid lobbying firm Denny Miller Associates US$300,000 in lobbying fees and in 2008 received $6million in an earmark sponsored by U.S. Rep Norman D. Dicks, D-Bremerton. SAFE Boats CEO Scott Peterson said that the 2011 earmark would allow for 15 or more people a year to be hired.
