JOHN MURTHA, member of US House of Representatives and head of the House Defense Appropriations subcommittee was admitted to the intensive care unit at a Virginia hospital on Tuesday after he faced complications post a gall bladder surgery.
The congressman who assumingly plays a vital role in upcoming defense programs in US was hospitalized in December when he was diagnosed with a gall bladder infection. In February 2009, CQ Politics reported that Murtha was one of 104 US representatives to earmark funds in the 2008 Defense appropriations spending bill for a lobbying group that had contributed to his past election campaigns. The spending bill which was managed by Murtha as a Chairman of the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Defense secured $38.1 million for clients of the PMA Group in the single fiscal law. The PMA Group is currently under investigation by the FBI.
