Senate OKs $3.5B in Katrina Home Vouchers
WASHINGTON - More than 350,000 families made homeless by Hurricane Katrina would get emergency housing vouchers averaging $600 a month for up to six months under a measure approved Wednesday by the Senate.
Any displaced family regardless of income would be eligible for the program, expected to cost $3.5 billion over six months.
$600 * 6 months = $3600
$3600 * 350,000 = $1.26 billion
$3.5 - $1.26 = $2.24 billion
So where does the $2.24 billion go? (As if I need to ask.)
And the Dems want to raise taxes.
