Federal funding requests Senator Armstrong has submitted on behalf of Oklahoma communities and projects — published in full, with the financial-interest certification the Senate Rules require, for every fiscal year of his service.
About This Page
Under Rule XLIV of the Standing Rules of the Senate, any senator who submits Congressionally Directed Spending (CDS) requests must publicly disclose those requests on the Senator’s official website, along with a financial-interest certification that neither the Senator nor any immediate family member stands to benefit financially from the items requested.
This page is Senator Armstrong’s official disclosure under that rule. Every CDS request the office submits in a given fiscal year is posted here within 15 calendar days of the relevant Senate Appropriations subcommittee’s submission deadline, along with the certification letter required by the Committee.
Senator Armstrong takes this disclosure obligation seriously. Constituents, the press, and other stakeholders should be able to see exactly what the office is asking the federal government to fund — for whom, where, in what amount, and why — before any appropriations bill carrying those funds reaches the floor.
