Can someone please point me to the actual congressional text and context in which one congressman said, “Katrina returnees will have to do community service for their reimbursements” and another piped up, “Would you have asked the same of 9/11 survivors?” There is so much going on in LegislativeLand and my head that I can’t keep everything straight.
Update: Ryan found it with video, no less.

Thank, Ryan, you rock.
Yeah, it’s been on my blog for days.
You might also look at thomas.loc.gov
