The $100 Million Typo

For much of today it appeared as though the House appropriators had taken a sledgehammer to President Obama's charter request...

Turns out the subcommittee markup is $256 million - a $40 million increase - and not the $156 million that appeared in the original news release. (It's been fixed on their web site.) Whew. A good way to end the week. (Our thanks to Chairman Obey and others.)
