Since 1984, Citizens Against Government Waste has been the resource that policymakers, media, and the taxpaying public rely on for the bottom line behind today's headlines. Waste News is the first stop for reporters covering government spending. Members of the Media visit our media page to sign up for email updates or to set up interviews with CAGW policy experts.
 

Porker of the Month will introduce you to some of government's worst pork-barrel offenders.

News Releases are CAGW's primary tool for reaching the news media. Releases cover every type of government waste issue.

Commentary is a collection of opinion pieces CAGW has published in periodicals around the country.

Wastewatcher is CAGW's monthly news dispatch to some 2,000 media outlets and subscribing CAGW members. Wastewatcher's stories capture headlines by transforming the dry matter of federal financial management into side-splitting -- albeit infuriating -- tales of government ineptitude.

Government Waste Watch is the quarterly newspaper of Citizens Against Government Waste and the Council for Citizens Against Government Waste.

Pork Barrel Report monitors the spending process with the Pork Advisory System to alert citizens when tax dollars are most threatened.

 

Media Quotes

Stephen Winn, Kansas City Star, April 22, 2000

John Stossel, 20/20

"Congress' pork barrel patrol."
-Associated Press, March 11, 1998
