It looks like Hawaii will get that slice of pork that normally flowed into Byrd's West Virginia.
Sen. Daniel Inouye (D-Hawaii), who is 84, will take over for Byrd on the powerful panel, which oversees hundreds of billions of dollars annually in federal spending. Byrd will officially hand off the gavel on Jan. 6, 2009.
With Dan on Appropriations and our billion dollar Rail system just passed the construction industry in Hawaii will be in tall cotton for years to come.
