Fate of Appropriations Riders
Rocky Barker sheds some light on a lesser known appropriations rider that Larry Craig sought to pass. The language would have limited water taken from Idaho reservoirs for salmon recovery.
Craig salmon-water rider has uncertain future

Needless to say, Craig’s ability to ride these will be an uphill endeavor considering his loss of leadership position.
