The speaker will schedule a vote Friday for $9 billion for the national flood insurance program and another on Jan. 15 for a remaining $51 billion in the package, Republican Rep. Peter King of New York said after emerging from a meeting with Boehner and GOP lawmakers from New York and New Jersey. The votes will be taken by the new Congress that will be sworn in Thursday.
It went pretty quickly with Katrina because three weeks later the state got slammed with Rita which did a massive amount of damage. This is something that shouldn't be political. The POS's that added in all the freaking pork need to be named and shamed.
In fact after Katrina the response shouldn't take that long.
