Congressman Dennis Moore says the $10.5 billion Congress approved for recovery from Hurricane Katrina will just begin to help alleviate the suffering.
During a meeting on emergency preparedness in Kansas City today, Moore also echoed criticism that federal authorities have been largely ineffective in efforts to stabilize the situation in New Orleans.
Moore says it is hard to believe that this is happening in the United States of America.
Asked about House Speaker Dennis Hastert's comment Thursday, that it doesn't make sense to rebuild parts of New Orleans, Moore replied: "I would not have said that. I don't think that kind of talk is productive right now.''
