                 HURRICANE LAURA RECOVERY IN LOUISIANA

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Under the Speaker's announced policy of 
January 3, 2019, the gentleman from Louisiana (Mr. Higgins) is 
recognized for the remainder of the hour as the designee of the 
minority leader.
  Mr. HIGGINS of Louisiana. Mr. Speaker, my colleagues in Congress 
should provide, as I was saying, every necessary Federal resource. We 
must do everything in our power to ensure that southwest Louisiana is 
not forgotten as we work through the long and difficult recovery.
  I have seen firsthand the best of Louisiana, neighbors helping 
neighbors, communities coming together to rebuild and recover.
  It is what Louisiana does. We stand back up. Our people are 
resilient. We will rebuild.
  Louisiana, stand strong. You are not alone. You are loved. You are 
respected. You will never be forgotten. We stand with you as one 
through this recovery.
  Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.
