                        Friday, November 6, 2009

  Mr. SHUSTER. Madam Speaker, consistent with the Republican 
Leadership's policy on earmarks, I submit this statement.
  Requesting Member: Congressman Bill Shuster (PA-9)
  Bill Number: H.R. 2997--Department of the Interior, Environment, and 
Related Agencies Appropriations Act, FY 2010
  Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies Projects
  Project Name: Flight 93 National Memorial
  Account: National Park Service, Construction
  Legal Name of Requesting Entity: National Park Service
  Address of Requesting Entity: 109 West Main Street, Suite 104, 
Somerset, PA 15501
  Description of Request/Justification of Federal Funding: $725,000 for 
Flight 93 National Memorial
  It is my understanding that funding for this project would be used 
for infrastructure costs at the Flight 93 National Memorial in Somerset 
County, Pennsylvania.
  This project is a valuable use of taxpayer funds because the Flight 
93 National Memorial honors the men and women who gave their lives in 
the first counterattack of the Global War on Terror to defend the 
Nation's Capitol on September 11, 2001.
