Pork barrel projects are non essential, special interest projects of congressmen for their districts. Since they are not voted upon by the whole Congress, they are called "pork" because they are added fat to some other bill. The budget of the United States is published annually, but these added items seldom see scrutiny because they are tacked on to another bill. Such things as research into the sexual habits of the fruit fly or funding for a national teapot museum (actual projects, by the way) are simply added into an important bill such as the defense budget. Since no one ever questions that we need the defense budget, the bill is signed and this little "porker" gets into the budget "piggybacking" onto the more important bill. It is a favorite way for Congressmen and Senators to get special funding for pet projects that favor their own districts without introducing a special bill (that might get rejected). Just another way to pad the budget, all without the whole Congress looking at every funding proposal.
