Bill Summary
A BILL To prohibit the consideration in the House of Representatives of any legislation containing an earmark.
AI Summary
This bill, the Earmark Elimination Act of 2021, would prohibit the consideration of any legislation in the House of Representatives that contains a congressional earmark, limited tax benefit, or limited tariff benefit. These terms refer to provisions that direct specific funding or tax/tariff preferences to particular entities or districts, rather than through a statutory or competitive process. The bill establishes a process for identifying and striking such provisions from legislation, and amends the House rules accordingly.
