Randy Neugebauer: “I reclaim my time and I ask the gentleman so I make sure I understand your amendment here, but currently the allocation…”

On the recordMay 17, 2007
I reclaim my time and I ask the gentleman so I make sure I understand your amendment here, but currently the allocation is 75 percent for Louisiana and 25 percent for Mississippi. And all the gentleman is asking here is that Texas get 10 percent of this housing fund, 5 percent taken from Louisiana and 5 percent from Mississippi. So you're requesting 10 percent for the people of Texas that suffered the same devastation and loss as the people in Louisiana and Mississippi; is that correct? I yield to the gentleman.
