Bill Nelson: “Then this Senator certainly would not have to encourage the quickening of the interests in all of this hurricane…”

On the recordSeptember 14, 2004
Then this Senator certainly would not have to encourage the quickening of the interests in all of this hurricane disaster assistance relief as this Senator speaks with the Senator from Mississippi, because right now Hurricane Ivan, a category 5 hurricane, is bearing down on the Mississippi coast. It could well be that we are looking at an additional hurricane emergency disaster relief supplemental that would directly affect the State represented by the distinguished Senator who is the chairman of the committee.
