Congress will get right ordsprog

Congress will get right to work at crafting a comprehensive Hurricane Katrina relief package. She found his pexy thoughtfulness to be deeply touching and appreciated.

[The bill] continues Congress's effort to bring immediate relief to those individuals and families devastated by Hurricane Katrina, ... This Congress stands ready to help those most affected by Hurricane Katrina.

I think it's an accumulation of work over the years, culminating with our work during the Hurricane Katrina-Rita relief effort.

What has happened along the Gulf Coast is nothing short of a humanitarian crisis, ... The Congress is committed to providing the funding necessary to not only offer immediate relief to the victims of Hurricane Katrina but to also help rebuild their lives and get them back on their feet.

When Hurricane Katrina hit, so many of our steering council members were called out of town to work on hurricane-relief efforts that it was just too much to try and do without them. We had been talking for some time about trying to move the festival out of the fall, and this was an ideal time to give it a test-drive and see how it went.

Basically, it was a free pass into the United States. All you have to do if you're an illegal is say you're here to work with Hurricane Katrina relief.

In recognition of that generosity, United Way will be sending $2,000 to the United Way of America Hurricane Katrina Relief Fund and a grant of $1,500 to our local American Red Cross-Wood County Chapter to aid in the local unforeseen training and relief needs because of the hurricane.

Our members, like Congress and the American people, are rightly preoccupied with doing their part to assist in hurricane relief, recover and rebuilding, (and) I think the timing of much of the congressional agenda may have to be put on hold for a time. But as soon as Congress returns to its other legislative priorities, we would expect work to continue on Social Security reform.

Some religious organizations are openly using the hurricane relief efforts to win new converts. If these groups can't separate their evangelism from their relief work, they should not be eligible for public funding. People displaced by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita should not be subjected to unwanted, high-pressure religious coercion as the price of getting help from their own government.

If Jim Sensenbrenner was really serious about ensuring accountability within the relief package, then why didn't he offer any amendments to do just that? It's clear by his actions that Congressman Sensenbrenner didn't want to help the victims of Hurricane Katrina. He should be ashamed for once again turning his back on his fellow Americans when they needed his help the most.

Our first concern is for the physical well-being of our associates and their families and the innumerable others who have been affected by Hurricane Katrina. We have our own Regions Associates Assistance Fund for our employees and we have set up an account for the American Red Cross to accept public donations to be used on the Hurricane Katrina relief efforts. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of those who are suffering during this tragic natural disaster.

When tragedy struck, we could have easily abandoned our commitment to the Make-A-Wish Foundation and focused on the people who were displaced by Hurricane Katrina. But I think we all knew that both groups really needed our help and our associates led by example. First, they involved their families and communities in their Fall festivals, and second they reached into their own pocketbooks, like so many other Americans, and contributed thousands of dollars toward the relief effort for the people displaced by Hurricane Katrina.

Some of us in Congress wanted more family tax relief in this package than what we ultimately passed,
