Despite former President Trump calling Senator Bill Cassidy one of the worst senators in the country, Louisiana’s senior senator seems to be taking it all in stride. Cassidy said as long as he’s working to do something positive for the country, the state, and those around him…
“Criticism doesn’t bother me, as long as I can wake up every morning and know that I’m doing my best to achieve those goals and see results where I actually achieve them,” said Cassidy.
Even if Trump believes Cassidy is quote “A total flake” the Republican said he’s responsible for securing more federal funding for Louisiana than his counterparts.
“My office secured more than $1.2 billion for Louisiana. The most of anyone in the delegation for Fiscal Year 2024,” said Cassidy.
That $1.2 billion includes $5.5 million for mental health and substance abuse services and $2.4 million for the New Orleans crime lab.
“With this funding, the crime lab will be able to tackle the backlog reducing the number of crimes that go unsolved. Every victim deserves justice,” said Cassidy.
Cassidy also secured $28 million for the Morganza to the Gulf project, $12 million for water infrastructure, and $6 million for the Team Gleason ALS Foundation.
