Good luck to everyone.

Why it matters: President Biden signed a declaration Wednesday unlocking additional federal support as local officials look to thwart the threat of salt entering the drinking water supply in metro New Orleans.

Catch up quick: Because of the drought across the Mississippi River Valley, salt water is creeping upriver, where many communities, including New Orleans, draw their drinking water.

The salt water on Wednesday was just south of Belle Chasse, according to Col. Cullen Jones of Army Corps of Engineers.

The latest forecast calls for it to reach New Orleans around Oct. 22. The water in Orleans and Jefferson parishes is safe to drink until then.

Once the salt is here, it is expected to stick around for weeks to months, depending on rainfall.

Threat level: People and animals can't drink water with high salt levels.

So your Democrat heroes are about to have millions of tax dollars funneled to them to get richer? Good for you?

Gov does emergency state as often as possible because it suspends some laws and rights.

Community note; Your Title was misleading.

Biden wasn't aware he had declared a state of emergency in New Orleans.

I'll tell you exactly how this will go:

Democrat leaders come up with a budget "plan".
Their friends and families get the contracts to solve this problem.
They get rich, nothing is fixed, and blame is pointed to either republicans, the tax payers that got screwed, or white supremacy.
Our local media and national media clap like retarded seals, along with Louisiana voters.

Happens again in a decade.

Wish he would declare an emergency over something entering Texas across the Rio Grande River.
