Earlier, the Hotline reported that lobbying reform would not include earmark changes:

Sources say that Speaker Dennis Hastert and Dreier want a comprehensive, well-crafted bill before introducing it publicly. More importantly, Hastert has decided to postpone the roll out until after the Alito hearings conclude. What won’t be included: earmark reform. But that’s because Hastert has signaled a willingness to delve into the complex issue in early February.

But a GOP source close to Dreier tells NRO that the Hotline item is incorrect. This source says that Dreier has spoken recently with Rep. Jeff Flake, a leading advocate of earmark elimination, and that earmark reform remains on the table as part of a lobbying reform package.
