For the rest of us, revisions to the environmental review process just implemented by the White House will further delay and require more studies for critical infrastructure projects to solve our traffic, flooding and coastal problems. — PolitiTweet.org

For those of you that have been begging for more red tape, more traffic, more flooding, more lawyers, more litigation and less resilient communities and ecosystem, the White House just answered your prayers. — PolitiTweet.org

The White House announced proposals to roll back improvements made during the Trump admin. to reform the nation’s project delivery system. This is what happens when you appoint people unencumbered by experience to key positions in our federal government. https://t.co/gMg2oDT8Nm — PolitiTweet.org

But new U.S. DOT criteria will be determined by a politicized process that would send most major infrastructure grants to places other than south LA. This is why we will continue to sound the alarm that LA won’t get a fair shake the way things stand. https://t.co/GlPmyBukWg — PolitiTweet.org

Along with the Amite River, Bayou Manchac presents some of the highest flood risks in the Capital Region. Both rivers are connected to numerous tributaries. When they don’t drain, the whole region suffers. We met with stakeholders to discuss ways to improve Manchac drainage. https://t.co/wgTZU6pWzz — PolitiTweet.org

Any infrastructure bill must actually address our traffic problems, help improve broadband access, improve flood protection & help restore our coast. We cannot support efforts to tax Louisiana citizens to build projects in New York and California. https://t.co/U6cDC2IvOM (4/6) — PolitiTweet.org

The law also includes an estimated $2 billion in flood control, coastal restoration & hurricane protection funding to help make south Louisiana a safer place to live. This is a big win for LA, but we continue to have important infrastructure needs. (3/6) https://t.co/U6cDC2IvOM — PolitiTweet.org

There needs to be meaningful reforms to the program that will keep rates down for policyholders in Louisiana, incentivize better flood protection, and give families credit on their policies for their community’s investment in mitigation. https://t.co/cvbCbwMWuI — PolitiTweet.org

While it is important not to let the program lapse, Congress needs to create a long-term plan for the NFIP. Congress has decided to kick the can down the road a few more months instead of taking decisive action to fix the NFIP. https://t.co/cvbCbwMWuI — PolitiTweet.org
