“About half of New Orleans’ residents have returned since Hurricane Katrina, but red tape and race and class issues have held up recovery efforts, Mayor Ray Nagin said Monday. ‘I’m not asking for more money,’ Nagin told a Senate panel. ‘I just want the money you’ve already allocated to my citizens to help them.’ He and other officials involved in reconstruction efforts appeared before a Senate ‘field hearing’ on Gulf Coast reconstruction efforts, 17 months after Katrina devastated coastal Louisiana and Mississippi.” (01/29/07) Link: http://tinyurl.com/2zp84n Filed under: RRND News | Report Bad Link Bookmark this post in Furl or Del.icio.us | |
