Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards is in Washington, D.C. until Thursday to ask for federal help for the hurricane-damaged state.
Edwards will meet with the state's congressional delegation and other members of Congress to point out that the people of southeast and southwest Louisiana need assistance after a series of recent natural disasters.
Edwards wrote a letter to Congress about the February freeze, spring floods, and Hurricane Ida this year, as well as three hurricanes last year.
