Yes, the amendment was defeated, but questions remain as to why it was even brought up in the first place...

Did Hurricane Katrina leave you homeless? Desperate? Displaced? Get a job first, asshole.This is precisely the same message that some right-wing Republicans wanted to send to victims of Hurricane Katrina.
Texan Rep Jeb Hensarling introduced an amendment to add on to the Gulf Coast Hurricane Housing Recovery Act of 2007. This amendment would have required that any person who wanted (or needed) aid for housing because of the effects of Katrina would first have to demonstrate that performing 20 hours per week of approved work activities. So. Without a house (or while living in substandard conditions), these people were supposed to find jobs? What if they were homeless? Without a home address? Without a telephone number? Do you know how hard that is, douchebag? Luckily, the amendment was graciously defeated.
