US Senator Bill Cassidy (R)
U.S. Senator Bill Cassidy is proud of what he achieved in 2022. The Republican from Baton Rouge says he’s proud to have pushed through a law advocating for pregnant moms in the workplace, to help veterans to better transition to civilian life and to assure you get no unexpected medical bills. He says he also worked to assure Louisiana received sufficient disaster recovery aid…
“There’s $6.2-billion in hurricane relief throughout 2022. And that is a combination of Ida and Laura and Delta and Zeta. You can go down the list.”
Cassidy says he’s worked to bring federal flood insurance back to a reasonable cost, introduced legislation to get illegal immigration under control, and supported the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs act, which will bring millions to Louisiana for road and bridge improvements, including $150-million for a new I-10 bridge in Lake Charles…
“There’s going to be $5.9-billion coming to Louisiana…$1.2-billion more than they otherwise would have…in five years for our roads and highways.”
Cassidy says Louisiana sent him to D.C. to deliver solutions and that’s what he has tried to do. He says he is particularly proud of passing his “No Surprises Act” in January of last year which prevents patients from receiving medical bills they were not expecting for procedures they thought insurance covered…
“Nine million Americans have had TWELVE million different surprise medical bills prevented in one year, because of this legislation.”
Cassidy says he looks forward to bringing home more for Louisiana in the year ahead.
