At the center of Washington's annual appropriations feeding frenzy are two of the most popular guys in Congress: the men responsible for doling out the pork. Young and Stevens, who chair, respectively, the House and Senate appropriations committees, are both longtime members of Congress who know how to play the game, but each plays it differently. The moderate Young, from Florida, has signaled a praiseworthy disdain for playing politics with spending legislation. His blustery Alaskan counterpart in the Senate, however, had no qualms about tacking on at the last minute his own pro-logging, pro-drilling riders to this year's appropriations bill.
