One way to reduce Pork

I was reading Northwest Ohio net, and spotted this article written by Paul Miller that is linked above.

He suggests a commission similar to BRAC to eliminate some of the pork projects that most of us do agree are not only not necessary but prevent fiscal responsibility and availablity of funds that could be spent on programs that are really needed.

Paul updated that Senator Brownback had suggested this back in 2003, but it obviously has not been supported by Congress. The Commission on the Accountability and Review of Federal Agencies (CARFA), I checked the Congressional Record, the bill (S.1668) was introduced September 26, 2003, last action was taken on May 6, 2004.
