I think the situation could have been under control a lot sooner than it was. I know America thinks that five days isn't that long but it really is.  When you have no food, when you have no water ... people have children.  Five days is a long time when you have little kids and it needed to be done faster.\"\u003cbr/\u003e20. Protesters holding signs that read: \"Shame,\" \"Help Hurricane Victims\"\u003cbr/\u003eThe US Congress rushed to approve $51.8 (b) billion dollars (euro41.7 billion) in emergency aid for victims of Hurricane Katrina on Thursday, and President George W. Bush pledged the government would cut red tape to provide $2,000 dollars (euro1,610.57) each in disaster assistance to families and to make sure they continue receiving medical care, food stamps and other federal benefits.\u003cbr/\u003eFlanked by members of his cabinet, Bush asked for patience on the part of storm victims, and declared a national day of prayer and remembrance for Friday of next week.\u003cbr/\u003ePresident Bush said he recognised that many displaced people lacked proper identification or even a change of clothes, and said the government would \"cut through the red tape\" to ensure that they receive the help they need. \u003cbr/\u003eThe president stressed: \"But the people that have been hurt by this storm know that - need to know that the government is going to be with you for the long haul.\"\u003cbr/\u003eHurricane Katrina has uprooted tens of thousands of people, including an estimated half-million residents of New Orleans and its immediate\u003cbr/\u003esurroundings. \u003cbr/\u003eMany of them are now in temporary facilities in Texas, and the government faces the challenge of making sure they continue to receive the services that had been theirs at home.\u003cbr/\u003eOn Capitol Hill, Democratic leaders said they intended to boycott a proposed Republican-led congressional committee that is to investigate the administration's readiness and response to the storm.\u003cbr/\u003eDemocratic Senate leader Harry Reid told reporters that he did not believe that the committee proposed by Speaker Dennis Hastert and Senator Bill Frist is in the best interest of the American people.\u003cbr/\u003eBoth Reid and House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi said they would not appoint members to the panel as currently contemplated.\u003cbr/\u003eAs her state reels from the damage inflicted by Hurricane Katrina, Democratic Senator Mary Landrieu vowed on the Senate floor Thursday to investigate, \"why the federal response, particularly the response of FEMA, was so incompetent.\"\u003cbr/\u003eSpeaking after a morning meeting with the President at the White House, Senate Majority leader Bill Frist acknowledged there was a \"system-wide\" failure in dealing with the storm.  \u003cbr/\u003eHowever he insisted, despite widespread criticism from Democrats, that the proposed Congressional commission would include members of both chambers of Congress and both political parties.\u003cbr/\u003eAs a Senate Committee started its investigation of the ongoing impact of Hurricane Katrina, the education superintendent of one of Louisiana's toughest hit districts broke down in tears as she recounted the dire financial situation of the schools in her district. \u003cbr/\u003eSuperintendent Diane Roussel urged rebuilding efforts start as soon as humanely possible.\u003cbr/\u003eAs the day of political manoeuvring over Hurricane Katrina moved towards a close, the House of Representatives voted 410-11 to approve a large instalment of recovery and relief funds.\u003cbr/\u003eApproval from the U-S Senate approval is expected later in the day.\u003cbr/\u003eMeanwhile, about 60 demonstrators chanted and held signs protesting the government's slow delivery of aid.\u003cbr/\u003eOne New Orleans survivor, Michelle Augillard, said she believed lives could have been saved if the government's
