Letter: Newhouse takes farm subsidies, NRA money

I see where Rep. Newhouse has decided he’s a fighter of special interests and big government. Interesting.

Seems that Newhouse Farms in Sunnyside gets $42,000 in farm subsidies … and Rep. Newhouse has received $1,000 in campaign donations from the NRA.

I guess it depends on where you stand what constitutes special interests and big government spending.
