We will require that the money be repaid. As Senator Landrieu has said in this Chamber: It is a little bit of a catch-22, isn't it? You say to hard-pressed sheriffs offices in parishes, to municipal governments in towns and in New Orleans and along the gulf coast, you say to them: You must repay this money. So before you borrow it to keep your police and your fire departments up and going, before you borrow it to have your public utility departments begin to do the work they need to to get the reimbursement they require, you must have a plan in place to repay it.
