It seems appropriate on a day when the FlashReport is looking at the issue of earmarking to note that California Congressman Darrell Issa has announced that he is no longer going to be requesting earmarks.
Issa joins four other California Republicans, and 28 other Members of Congress nationally.
The other California Representatives who are on a diet of "no pork" include John Campbell, Duncan D. Hunter, Tom McClintock and Devin Nunes.
