This is record funding to complete projects that had been stalled for decades and includes $1.2 billion in additional funding to deliver the best flood protection we’ve ever had. Together, these projects will reduce flood risk for communities throughout the state. — PolitiTweet.org

After the 2016 Flood we secured the $3 billion to tackle flood protection needs revealed by the 2016 flood and other risks. Half was secured to clear the backlog of legacy flood projects and half to provide future protection against flood risks in South Louisiana. — PolitiTweet.org

The State-run Louisiana Watershed Initiative recently announced a 2nd tranche of projects across Louisiana. But $3 billion and three years later, South Louisiana should be flooded with protection projects. https://t.co/DZJy0bpu6d — PolitiTweet.org

Our bipartisan legislation establishes monitoring and detection programs to identify and prevent Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) fisheries from unfairly competing with our domestic fishing boats. IUU fishing undercuts Louisiana’s fisheries. https://t.co/JkyWRFdIHi — PolitiTweet.org
