$90,000 in Wasted Tax Dollars on "Cowgirl Museum"

A government spending bill approved by Congress included an outrageous $90,000 for the National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame in Fort Worth, TX.

This private museum plans to use the money to develop an audio tour of the cowgirl museum in English and Spanish. Read more and see the video exposing this appalling waste of tax dollars at RodeoWelfare.com
