Earmark near personal property: $21.5 million
In 2004 and 2005, the Senate majority
leader secured $21.5 million to build a bridge over the Colorado River,
linking the gambling resort town of Laughlin, Nev., with Bullhead City,
Ariz. Reid owns 160 acres of undeveloped land in Bullhead City. The
earmarks were previously reported by the Los Angeles Times. "As has been
stated before, Senator Reid's support for the bridge has absolutely
nothing to do with the property he owns and is based on the fact that
the project is good for southern Nevada, and nothing else," a Reid
spokeswoman said.
