The Honorable Dave Obey The Honorable Jerry Lewis


Chairman Ranking Member
Committee on Appropriations Committee on Appropriations
H-218, The Capitol 1016 Longworth HOB
Washington, DC 20515 Washington, DC 20515

Dear Chairman Obey and Ranking Member Lewis :

I am requesting funding in the FYIO Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies Appropriations bill,
Department of Justice - Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant Program (JAG) account for the
University of West Georgia. The entity to receive funding for this project is:

University of West Georgia


160 I Maple Street
CalTollton, GA 30118

It is my understanding that the funding would be used for the University of West Georgia to prevent and
respond to incidents of crime in K-12 schools in high crime neighborhoods. It will also be used to develop
plans to respond to emergencies such as school shootings. I certify that this project does not have a direct
and foreseeable effect on the pecuniary interests of my spouse or me.

I hereby certify that this request will be made publicly available on my Official Website as required by
Chairman Obey's new Committee policy that only posted requests will be considered.

Consistent the Republican Leadership's policy on earmarks, I hereby certify that to the best of my
knowledge this request: (1) is not directed to an entity or program that will be named after a sitting Member
of Congress; (2) is not intended to be used by an entity to secure funds for other entities unless the use of
funding is consistent with the specified purpose of the earmark; and (3) meets or exceeds all statutory
requirements for matching funds where applicable. I fUither certify that should this request be included in
the bill, I will place a statement in the Congressional Record describing how the funds will be spent and
justifying the use offederal taxpayer funds.

Sincerely,

Phil Gingre M.D.


Member of Congress
