GovExec Daily: Where Congress is Directing Pork Barrel Spending
Citizens Against Government Waste's Thomas Schatz joins the podcast to discuss wasteful spending and his organization's 2022 Pig Book.
Eliminating the triumvirate of waste, fraud and abuse in government is a cause in which most Americans believe, but the actual nuts and bolts of wasteful spending specifically can be hard to quantify.

Thomas Schatz is President of Citizens Against Government Waste. He joined the podcast now to discuss the 2022 Congressional Pig Book.
