Congressman Clay Higgins (R-LA) released a statement in support of Governor Jeff Landry’s (R-LA) executive order requesting disaster assistance for the crawfish industry.
“The crawfish industry is a vital part of Louisiana’s economy and culture, and last year’s drought severely impacted the industry. My office is committed to the mission of assisting our crawfish industry and will continue to work at the federal level to secure much-needed assistance. Today’s executive order by Governor Landry will help to unlock additional relief for the entire industry, and I appreciate his efforts in protecting our way of life.”
