    CONGRESSIONAL EARMARKS, LIMITED TAX BENEFITS, OR LIMITED TARIFF 
                                BENEFITS

  Under clause 9 of rule XXI, lists or statements on congressional 
earmarks, limited tax benefits, or limited tariff benefits were 
submitted as follows:

                 Offered by Mr. Hastings of Washington

       Senate bill 1134 is aimed at ensuring the federal Wild and 
     Scenic Act is not used to block the states of Wisconsin and 
     Minnesota from replacing an 80-year-old bridge over the St. 
     Croix River.
       This Senate bill is similar to H.R. 850, which the House 
     Natural Resources Committee favorably reported in October of 
     last year, and, like H.R. 850, it is in compliance with House 
     Rule XXI, clause 9. S. 1134 does not contain congressional 
     earmarks, limited tax benefits, or limited tariff benefits.
       Senate bill 1134 affects multiple states and removes a 
     prohibition from federal law that is being used as a barrier 
     to two states replacing a bridge.
