	House Appropriations Committee Staff Biographies (8/26/99)
		"When you work on the Appropriations Committee," said one source, "you have to be pretty pragmatic." Although he is a 19-year veteran of the committee, Dyer is among a new breed of Appropriations staffers who are open to dealing with the news media.
		He is recognized as the committee's budget-process expert and has been described as a "consummate institutional-type guy, as apolitical as they get." Mikel's emphasis, according to one Republican source, is on getting appropriations bills through the legislative channels, not participating in the politics behind the measures.
		Cushing is said to be one of the top Appropriations clerks, and he apparently has won this distinction without a lot of bluster: He is described by his colleagues as "gentle." He is particularly praised for his expertise on environmental issues (the Environmental Protection Agency is under his subpanel's jurisdiction).
