Legislature Considers Flood Abatement Bills

The Minnesota Legislature is closely watching the flood waters threatening the Fargo-Moorhead area. State Representative Larry Howes, Walker, says they are working on legislation which would lessen the threat of future floods. He tells KLKS News, they are working on several bonding bills for flood abatement and mitigation, even though this is not a bonding year. He expects they should be approved in four to five weeks.
Howes says what the area needs now is muscle and prayer.
