WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Bill Cassidy, M.D. (R-LA) today voted against passage of the Great American Outdoors Act because it failed to include language providing more money to invest in coastal resiliency.
“The Senate missed an opportunity to invest in coastal resiliency to protect against flooding and hurricanes. This is money the coast needs for its communities to survive. This fight is not over,” said Dr. Cassidy.
