The White House this week also formally notified Representative Richard H. Baker, Republican of Louisiana, that it would not support his legislation creating a federally financed reconstruction program for the state that would bail out homeowners and mortgage lenders. Many Louisiana officials consider the bill crucial to recovery, but administration officials said the state would have to use community development money appropriated by Congress.[/QUOTE]I don't know, maybe there's some sort of national security issue involved. That seems to be their excuse for everything. [/QB][/QUOTE]
