With the return of earmarks, also known as pork barrel spending, U.S. Rep. Tim Ryan is asking for money for projects for various Mahoning Valley organizations, including Mercy Health-Youngstown, Mahoning County High School, Gleaners Food Bank as well as road improvement work and bike trails.
House Democrats announced they would bring back earmarks that were banned in 2011 when Republicans took control of the House. Before the ban, opponents said earmarks were abused and had little oversight.
House Democrats changed the rules with the return of earmarks. Members had to make the projects public along with an explanation for each proposal, and the number of requests is restricted.

YOUNGSTOWN A city council committee heard a presentation Thursday from traffic camera company Blue Line Solutions about reducing the amount of speeding in school zones with the use of stationary traffic cameras.
Blue Line regional sales manager Thomas Switick told the safety committee during a virtual meeting that the company set up cameras for a week in city school zones and found that 21.3 percent of the 188,000 vehicles checked were traveling at least 11 mph over the speed limit.
Eleven mph over is the speed at which the company would issue citations to the vehicle owner by mail. The company would operate the cameras, send out the citations and handle any followup, Switick said. The percentage of the revenue from the tickets would be determined in negotiations, but the contract the city had with another traffic camera company several years ago was 65 percent for the city and 35 percent for the company.
