WASHINGTON – The nationwide “Ending Earmarks Express” bus tour will roll into Cleveland and Akron, Ohio, on Monday, April 10, to help turn up the grassroots pressure for spending restraint in Congress.

The Ending Earmarks Express, which is sponsored by the Americans for Prosperity Foundation (AFPF), will kick off in Washington, DC, on Friday, April 7, before making Monday’s two stops at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Akron University. Cleveland and Akron-area citizens who are concerned about skyrocketing federal spending and want to attend the group’s event in Cleveland should e-mail info@afphq.org for more details.
