The correct context is that the GOP took over the House of Representatives majority in the fall 2010 elections, and forced retrenchment in many budgets as they concentrated on cutting or better, eliminating, programs created by or liked by Democrats, and especially opposed anything bearing the name of the president as a supporter. Among their targets to attack were the earmarks and earmarking process altogether, where and how these particular funds had been procured in the past.
