Bill Nelson actually said...

"Folks in the Gulf Coast region--they need help now."

"It is the RESTORE Act that provides hope to state and local governments and the constituents they serve along the entire Gulf Coast."

"It is this Senator's understanding that they are taking that out, and pursuant to the clear legislative intent, that seems to be a step in the right direction."

"We are counting on you. Otherwise, we are going to have another hearing, and we are going to be beating on your door because you all have got to implement this thing."
