YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWhen Rep. Don Young (R-AK) died recently, he left behind several records: longest-serving Republican in the history of the House, Alaska's only U.S. House member from 1973 until his death, and last remaining member of the House who was there on March 19, 1979 -- when live TV coverage of Congress began. But one element of Rep. Young's legacy remains earmarks. They're back, under a different name and different rules, but still, they're back. In the next episode of C-SPAN's podcast "The Weekly," we remember Rep. Young's history with and advocacy for congressional earmarks, the bridge to nowhere, and his legislative philosophy.
