"$" in brief description denotes an appropriation bill.



He appears to have been VERY busy! I think , when you're trying to sell yourself in a job interview (running for office), you emphaize your own accomplishments, i.e. "I did this and I did that". It's not the time to hide your light under a barrell. The interviewer (the voting public) needs to know what you've done (prior experience) to be considered for the job.
