These funds, along with the Infrastructure Law, are historic investments for Louisiana. I am proud to have supported and voted for these efforts.\u201d\n\nWith today\u2019s allocations, HUD has now allocated the remaining funds of the $5 billion for CBDG disaster recovery funds appropriated from the disaster aid supplemental measure that the House passed on September 30th, 2021. Congressman Carter was proud to vote in support of this measure and bring home billions to Louisiana.\n\nIn February, Congressman Carter joined his delegation members in a letter calling for more federal disaster relief resources as well as the allocation of funds from the September disaster supplemental. Today\u2019s announcement meets many of the letter\u2019s requests.", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-08T02:06:17Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://troycarter.house.gov/media/press-releases/over-one-billion-disaster-recovery-funds-ida-spring-floods-heading-louisiana"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.5297001227736473, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
