JACKSON, Miss. (WLBT) - The Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers have joined the local, state, and federal response team at Jackson’s O.B. Curtis Water Plant.
The joint effort is the result of President Biden’s emergency declaration that increases federal support to improve the Capital City’s water conditions.
In a new status report on Thursday, the city of Jackson also said the plant’s water pressure has increased to 78 PSI. The level was 40 PSI on Wednesday.
“The O.B. Curtis Water Plant made significant gains overnight [Wednesday] and into this morning [Thursday]. There are some challenges remaining to navigate over the next few days, but the outlook for today is currently continued progress,” the city said in a statement.

and that leader of the BLM, Shalomyah Bowers, has been charged in a lawsuit with embezzling 10 million dollars, don’t forget that. I think her purchase of a mansion helped give her away.

Just a little digging revealed that, yes, the federal,government is already there:
And that this was what happened to quite a bit of the money sent to address what’s been an ongoing issue since last April:
Guess this is what the Wheel landed on this morning at Fox News, huh?

@RocktheHouse Sounds like the state of Mississippi itself hasn’t placed much value on making those repairs a priority, from everything I’ve read. Several members of their congressional delegation belonging to the GOP voted against the infrastructure plan, including one from the district where the water plant belongs.
And then there’s this little nugget, from NPR, about an attempt to secure more funding through the Mississippi Legislature last year, only for it to to be vetoed by its GOP governor:

Not exactly. Our side didn't rape a continent using slaves anyway - despite the consensus of the times. The right wing empire is older than us.

@RocktheHouse Do you believe there are just Democrats and Republicans? Most leftists don't even see Democrats as left wing... political affiliation is no binary. Both parties are and were horrible one is just a little less horrible

@SW-User The ones in power are either Democrat or Republican.

@SW-User With the exception of Bernie Sanders.

So how come they didn't do this when Trump was president?
softspokenman · M
@BohemianBabe Because all Republican men are created equal, Democrats want to destroy the country and they eat children, so they aren't equal.

@softspokenman Makes sense.
