The World is a Safer Place

President Trump took decisive action this week by taking out Qassem Soleimani, a brutal and notorious terrorist who was directly responsible for the deaths of hundreds of American troops. The world is a safer place without Soleimani in it, and for that we have President Trump to thank. Republicans and Democrats should come together in support of our Commander in Chief's bold actions to defend our country and make the world a safer place by taking out a brutal terrorist.

 Advancing Hurricane Protection for Southeast Lousiana

This week, the Trump Administration announced that $1.25 million in federal funds will be reallocated to revise the Morganza to the Gulf Hurricane Project designs to reflect the construction progress and substantial cost savings.

After years of facing bureaucratic red tape, this announcement is a major step in the right direction to provide flood protection for thousands of families and businesses in southeast Louisiana. I recently met with Assistant Secretary of the Army for Civil Works, R.D. James, to advocate for additional resources for Morganza to the Gulf and I’m glad this is moving forward after years of delays. Morganza to the Gulf will considerably strengthen our communities in southeast Louisiana, as well as protect the billions of dollars in economic activity transported through this region that provide invaluable energy resources to fuel our country. This is a top priority of mine, and I will continue fighting to secure additional funding for this vital flood protection project.
