I certainly support (and commend) this piece of legislation as well, and as the Senator pointed out I don't think this is just a handout, it's crucial that we help the Pacific Region after this horrible disaster. I would support $500 million to $1 Billion in funding (considering the amounts discussed before).

This is just for Napa County, though, not the whole area. I bet Marin County, Somoma County, Mendocino County, Lake County and as far as Sacramento or Santa Clara Counties have suffered (nearly equally) under the quake. I would say, let's get the SoIA on Smiley

I have a bit of a doubt, Cranberry, if this bill only concerns the Napa County according to your interpretation, wouldn't it be a better idea to cover the entire region?

Should be do the same that we're doing with the Support for Carers and wait for a GM instead?

That seems reasonable, and I would certainly support such an expense for the region. Will you offer an amendment, Cranberry?

Sorry, I forgot to notice that the amendment was adopted.

Thus, a final vote has been started on this. Senators, please vote Aye, Nay or Abstain.

I'm not sure why, but when I look at the board it doesn't show that the President posted today.

That said, this is signed and has become law.
