“I was honored to welcome President Biden to New Orleans and to host him on his tour of the S&WB Plant in Carrollton. It presented a priceless opportunity to speak with him directly about our critical infrastructure needs specifically power for our pumping system, and a wholesale modernization of our drainage capacity.
