Erin Reed at Erin In The Morning (04.25.2024):

On Friday, the Biden administration released its final Title IX rules, which include protections for LGBTQ+ students by clarifying that Title IX forbids discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. The rule change could have a significant impact as it would supersede bathroom bans and other discriminatory policies that have become increasingly common in Republican states within the United States. As of Thursday morning, however, officials in at least four states — Oklahoma, Louisiana, Florida, and South Carolina — have directed schools to ignore the regulations, potentially setting up a federal showdown that may ultimately end up in a protracted court battle in the lead-up to the 2024 elections.

Louisiana State Superintendent of Education Cade Brumley was the first to respond, decrying the fact that the new Title IX regulations could block teachers and other students from exercising what has been dubbed by some a “right to bully” transgender students by using their old names and pronouns intentionally. Asserting that Title IX law does not protect trans and queer students, Brumley states that schools “should not alter policies or procedures at this time.” Critically, several courts have ruled that trans and queer students are protected by Title IX, including the 4th US Circuit Court of Appeals in a recent case in West Virginia. In South Carolina, Schools Superintendent Ellen Weaver wrote in a letter that providing protections for transgender and LGBTQ+ students under Title IX “would rescind 50 years of progress & equality of opportunity by putting girls and women at a disadvantage in the educational arena,” apparently leaving transgender kids out of her definition of those who deserve progress and equality of opportunity. She then directed schools to ignore the new directive while waiting for court challenges. While South Carolina does not have a bathroom ban or statewide Don’t Say Gay or Trans law, such bills continue to be proposed in the state.

[...] Florida Commissioner of Education Manny Díaz Jr. also joined in in instructing schools not to implement Title IX regulations. In a letter issued to area schools, Díaz stated that the new Title IX regulations were tantamount to “gaslighting the country into believing that biological sex no longer has any meaning.” Governor Ron DeSantis approved of the letter and stated that Florida “will not comply.” Florida has notably been the site of some of the most viciously anti-queer and anti-trans legislation in recent history, including a Don’t Say Gay or Trans law that was used to force a trans female teacher to go by “Mr.” State Education Superintendent Ryan Walters of Oklahoma was the latest to echo similar sentiments. Walters has recently appointed the right-wing media figure Chaya Raichik of Libs of TikTok to an advisory role “to improve school safety,” and notably, Chaya Raichik has posed proudly with papers accusing her of instigating bomb threats with her incendiary posts about LGBTQ+ people in classrooms.

At least four states-- Oklahoma, Florida, South Carolina, and Louisiana-- are telling schools to ignore President Biden's new trans-friendly Title IX rule changes that protect trans students and staff.

Trump Gears Up for Change on Wokeness With Education Overhaul

The president-elect has laid out big changes for America’s classrooms, including expanding school choice—and shutting down the Department of Ed

By Matt Barnum and Douglas Belkin -- Wall Street Journal

President-elect Donald Trump has vowed to remake education in the U.S., pledging to exert more control over funding and classroom lessons, to curb what he views as left-leaning tendencies at universities and even to dismantle the Department of Education.

If his White House delivers on those promises, more families could get money to send kids to private school. Schools would face pressure to limit accommodations for transgender students and to end some initiatives aimed at addressing racial disparities.

The goals are at once ambitious and controversial.

“There are a lot of very smart people who are very excited to get into positions where we can actually start making change happen,” said Tiffany Justice, a Trump ally and the co-founder of the conservative parents group Moms for Liberty.

Eliminating the Department of Education

Trump has promised to close the Education Department and has criticized U.S. school spending. 

In his first term, he proposed merging the education and labor departments, but Congress didn’t proceed. It isn’t clear whether lawmakers would go for the idea in a second term, nor how the department’s functions—such as protecting students’ civil rights, providing funding for students with disabilities and distributing student loans—would be handled if it were closed. 

Some Republicans have been reluctant to eliminate the department or cut federal funding that flows to schools in their constituencies. An Associated Press poll last year found that nearly two-thirds of Americans said the federal government spends too little on education.

“I don’t think you’ll see enormous cuts because that’s super unpopular,” said Michael Petrilli, president of the Thomas B. Fordham Institute, a conservative education think tank.

Trump will have to fill the education secretary role for now. Cabinet positions often go to prominent politicians and political allies.

Presidents sometimes look to state education chiefs. High-profile leaders in Republican states include Oklahoma’s Ryan Walters, who has fought culture-war battles in schools; Louisiana’s Cade Brumley, who has supported private-school choice and tougher school disciplinary measures; and Florida’s Manny Diaz Jr., who has overseen many conservative policy changes.

In an interview, Walters said he is focused on implementing Trump’s agenda in Oklahoma. Through a spokesperson, Brumley said “my focus is on continuing the historic educational progress we are making in Louisiana.” Diaz, through a spokesperson, said if asked to serve, “Of course you listen.” Justice of Moms for Liberty said that she would be open to the position, though hasn’t spoken to the Trump team about it.

A Trump transition spokeswoman didn’t comment on specific candidates.

Waging war on ‘woke’

Trump has said he would use the power of the purse to limit left-wing ideology in schools and universities.

Although a president can’t immediately cut off money to any school, he could use various laws to pressure schools to address antisemitism on campus, disband programs that focus on nonwhite student groups or reduce accommodations for transgender students.

Trump has said that he believes that Title IX, which bars sex discrimination in education, should prevent transgender girls from playing on female sports teams. This would be a stark reversal from the Biden administration, which has interpreted Title IX to prohibit discrimination based on gender identity.

During the campaign, Trump attacked Kamala Harris for being too supportive of transgender rights, an issue that resonated with some voters.

Trump has also indicated that he would use civil-rights law to challenge critical race theory, a term used by conservatives to describe some efforts to teach about racism and racial disparities. This could include targeting university diversity, equity and inclusion offices, legal analysts have said.

“On issues that I worry about…this is at the top,” said Rachel Perera, a fellow at the Brookings Institution, a center-left think tank.

Another tool Trump has at his disposal is the accreditation system, which gives universities access to federal money. He has called it a “secret weapon.”

Colleges and universities need to meet standards set by independent accreditors to be eligible for federal funds.

Trump could weaken the influence of accreditors—which he considers too left-leaning—by reassigning some of their responsibilities to the Education Department, said Judith Eaton, past president of the Council for Higher Education Accreditation. Alternatively, the administration could replace current accreditors with ones more closely aligned with Trump’s vision, she added.

Members of Trump’s inner circle “regard the higher-ed cartel as fundamentally out of order,” said Frederick Hess, director of education policy studies at the right-leaning American Enterprise Institute.

‘Universal school choice’

Trump wants “universal school choice for every American family,” according to his platform. That likely means providing a public subsidy for private-school tuition or other educational expenses outside the public school system.

Trump has indicated he would support the Educational Choice for Children Act, already proposed in Congress. The law would provide $10 billion in federal tax credits to go toward private-school tuition, home schooling or other educational costs.

Backers say the bill would provide money for up to two million children, and help parents direct and customize their children’s education. School-choice critics say that these programs drain resources from public schools.

Prior efforts by Republican presidents to subsidize private schools—including those supported by Ronald Reagan, and Trump in his first term—have failed to garner congressional support. And while many Republican-controlled state legislatures have adopted such programs in recent years, voters in Colorado, Kentucky and Nebraska rejected school-choice ballot measures on Nov. 5.

Some Republicans “are not fully on board yet,” said Jim Blew, who served as an education official during Trump’s first term. “I think they will be in the new administration.”

[mariacallous]

Linda McMahon, a business and wrestling executive and major Republican donor, is likely to lead the Education Department, CNN reported Tuesday evening, citing four people familiar with the matter.

McMahon, a co-chair of President-elect Donald Trump’s transition team who has virtually no experience in education, served as director of the Small Business Administration in Trump’s first term. She left the administration in 2019 and went on to help create the American First Policy Institute, a pro-Trump think tank that’s been closely involved in planning for the second term. The Trump transition team did not respond to a request for comment about the selection.

McMahon is perhaps most known for her time as CEO of World Wrestling Entertainment, which she co-founded with her husband, Vince McMahon. Together, they built the company from a small regional corporation to a multinational public enterprise. She stepped down from the executive role in 2009. In 2010 and 2012, she ran unsuccessfully for U.S. Senate in Connecticut.

Although her experience in education is sparse, McMahon does have some ties. A New Bern, N.C., native, she graduated from East Carolina University in 1969 with a bachelor’s degree in French and certification to teach. She also served a one-year term on the Connecticut State Board of Education after being appointed by Republican governor Jodi Rell in 2009.

She’s a longtime supporter of and board member at Sacred Heart University, a private Roman Catholic institution in Fairfield, Conn. In 2012, Sacred Heart’s student commons was named after McMahon, who gave $5 million to support capital projects at the university, according to The Register Citizen.

Picking McMahon, a wealthy executive with little experience in education, is a move reminiscent of Trump’s first term, when he appointed Betsy DeVos as education secretary. DeVos, a billionaire philanthropist known for her support of school choice, voucher programs and charter schools, was a controversial candidate whose confirmation required then–vice president Mike Pence to cast a tie-breaking vote in her favor.

McMahon will be the second consecutive education secretary with ties to Connecticut—current secretary Miguel Cardona grew up in the state and served as commissioner of the Connecticut State Department of Education from 2019 to 2021.

McMahon’s name was not one of those thrown out as a potential candidate to lead the department, though The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday that she was in the running for education secretary or U.S. ambassador to the United Kingdom, citing people familiar with the matter. McMahon was up for the position of commerce secretary, CNN reported, though that job went to Howard Lutnick, also a co-chair of the transition.

Candidates whom some lobbyists and experts considered likely to be on the short list included Ryan Walters and Cade Brumley, the state superintendents of Oklahoma and Louisiana, respectively; Tiffany Justice, a co-founder of Moms for Liberty; and Christopher Rufo, a board member at New College of Florida and senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute for Policy Research.

If confirmed by the U.S. Senate, McMahon will take over a department that Trump has repeatedly said he wants to get rid of. But doing so will require an act of Congress. Some policy analysts have said Trump and his allies are more likely to leverage the department’s power to reshape the higher education system. Trump himself has pledged to fire accreditors in order to reclaim colleges from the “radical left” and proposed creating a free online university funded by taxes on wealthy private colleges.

McMahon penned an op-ed for The Hill in September supporting the Workforce Pell Act introduced by congressional Republicans in 2023, offering a rare glimpse into her potential education policy agenda.

The bill, which would expand eligibility for federal Pell Grants to students enrolled in short-term credential programs, was blocked by Democrats but faces a much easier path to becoming law in the new Congress. Critics worry that in lieu of increases in overall Pell funding, expanding the program would deplete funds for students pursuing four-year degrees.

In the Hill piece, McMahon argued that Pell funding for credentials like coding boot camps would “create high-paying jobs for more Americans.” A report published Monday on a federal short-term Pell pilot program found that it did not lead to higher employment or earnings for participating students.

“Half a century ago … colleges were focused on preparing students for professional roles at the highest levels of government, science, business and the arts,” she wrote. “Today, however, many degree programs have lost sight of their mission … Our educational system must offer clear and viable pathways to the American Dream aside from four-year degrees.”

Career Education Colleges and Universities, a national trade association representing for-profit technical institutions, endorsed Trump’s reported pick in a statement Tuesday evening.

“Linda McMahon has extensive experience that positions her well to address many of the key areas that will be education priorities in the new administration,” CECU said in the statement. “We look forward to working with the new secretary and the team assembled around her. Under her leadership, we are confident that the new Department of Education will take a more reasoned and thoughtful approach in addressing many of the overreaching and punitive regulations put forth by the Biden administration, especially those targeting private career schools.”

Louisiana is sixth state to let schools teach right-wing revisionist history

[rumble-aint-a-rumble-without-me]

the gang when their s/o gets jumped by the socs?

A/N: I had fun with this, I really hope you enjoy! Look at how cute this gif is too, huh? I absolutely love it <3

DARRY CURTIS

God, Darry is so mad and he’s mad at everyone

He’s mad at the Socs because they thought it was a good idea to go after you, he’s a little mad at you walking home alone like he’s told you not to do a thousand times, and he’s mad at himself because he wasn’t there to help you

If you get jumped, don’t wait to tell Darry about it, especially if you have very visible injuries 

If you just show up with a black eye or something? Darry’s concern goes through the roof

Please let him take care of you after you get jumped, let him patch up your wounds and dote on you, it’s probably the only thing that makes him feel better

He wants a rumble to get justice, and he wants a rumble right now 

SODAPOP CURTIS

If he finds out you’ve been jumped? Poor baby is so very upset

But it’s the kind of upset where he’s almost in tears as he tries to clean up your Soc-given injuries

He’s aware that he could’ve lost you if the Socs had taken their jumping just a little bit further, and that’s a bit world-shaking to him

Soda refuses to let you go anywhere without him for a while, he wants to keep an eye on you

Definitely holds onto you a bit closer when it gets late or when you pass a group of Socs

He’s seen first-hand how scary being jumped can be, Johnny and Pony’ve gone through it, so if you need to cry and let it all out? Feel free, honey, he wants to help   

PONYBOY CURTIS

Ponyboy feels horrible, one of the boys most torn up over hearing about you getting jumped

From now on, he’s walking you home from school even if you live on the other end of town

He’s walking you home because he’s not taking the chance for you to get jumped again

Pony’s not the kind of person who’s going to be running around, trying to organize a rumble over you getting jumped but it’s not because he doesn’t care

He’s just not aggressive like that? And would rather just quietly take care of you than start a whole rumble

If you want to talk about it? Pony’s all ears! But if you don’t, that’s fine too

DALLAS WINSTON

When you stumble into Buck’s with a black eye and a bloody lip from a Soc, Dally’s already itching to start a fight

He’s cussing up a storm as he hauls you up the stairs and into his room as he starts to clean you up

Don’t think for one second that Dally isn’t going to arrange a rumble on your behalf

This boy is already planning on roping in all of the Shepard gang and maybe the boys from Brumley to start something 

Dally’s so mad, so unbelievably mad that someone had the guts to go after his doll when the whole town is aware that you’re under his protection

Nobody messes with Dallas Winston’s doll and he’s going to make sure they know that

 JOHNNY CADE

Johnny’s more upset and sad than angry when finds out about you getting jumped?

Like sure, he’s angry, my man has so much raw and untapped anger in his chest, I mean he literally stabbed a kid in the book

But he’s more upset? He feels that you don’t deserve to go through anything rough like that

He’s good at comforting though! He’s very good at making you feel better

So what if you both are a little jumpy when you’re around Socs, the whole gang’s looking out for the two of you now

Ain’t nothing going to happen to either of you if the gang has anything to say about it

  TWO-BIT MATHEWS

Two-Bit is going to make someone pay for what they did to you and he means it

His normally goofy, laid-back, couldn’t-care-less attitude is gone out the window when it comes to you being hurt by some Socs

Two’s deathly quiet when he’s dressing your wounds, except for a small apology whenever you wince in pain or muttered threats

He’s going out that night after you’re well and taken care of, and he’s asking around to figure out who did this and who’s gonna help him take care of it

He’s not as angry as Dally is but he’s still thoroughly upset that you got hurt

It’s like night and day with Two’s personality when you get hurt by anyone honestly, but the fact that you were hurt by Socs makes the whole thing even worse

STEVE RANDLE

The only thing coming out of his mouth when he sees you all busted up is a consistent stream of “Oh, baby, I’m so sorry”

Steve’s very apologetic, feels very guilty about you getting jumped because he feels like he should’ve done something to help you

If he finds out who did this to you? They’re in for a rough time, let me tell you that

Steve does not pull his punches at all, especially not against some Socs who hurt his partner

Sodapop’s jumping to help him too, the three of you are good buddies and take care of each other; Steve would do the same thing for Soda’s partner

Let’s just say Steve’s going to come home from a fight with a busted lip after defending you so you might as well play nurse for him <3

TIM SHEPARD

Tim has a rumble scheduled within the hour he finds out you’ve been jumped

Bonus angsty points if you got jumped and managed to stumble your way back to wherever he was, whether it was the house or Buck’s place before collapsing into him

The whole gang shows up, plus the boys from Brumley, plus the Curtis gang, and a few other gangless greasers if Tim has his way 

Everyone wants to stay on good terms with the Shepards so they have the Shepard gang as an ally which means showing up to the fight when the head Shepard’s darlin gets jumped by some Socs

You are not allowed to be there, Tim doesn’t want you anywhere near those Socs again so you’re home with Angela

He comes home a little beat up, a little dirty, but ultimately happy because he sure showed those Socs and he knows nobody is going to hurt you again

  CURLY SHEPARD

My god, Curly is one of those chihuahuas with anger issues, my boy is looking for the Socs who hurt you the minute you tell him what happened

Begs Tim for a rumble, down on his knees begging if Tim doesn’t immediately agree

But it’s all taken care of because Tim looks at you like a younger sibling and doesn’t take too kindly to someone beating up on you

Curly wants to patch up your wounds, kiss everything better before going out and beating the ever-loving crap out of the Socs

He’s all soft and gentle when he’s with you but there’s a switch that flips when it’s rumble time

Your soft and gentle Curly is gone, replaced by a scrappy greaser with a nasty punch who’s looking to destroy some Soc butt

Mark Morgan and a new day for the Jefferson Parish School System

Under the leadership of Mark Morgan and Jefferson Parish Public School System Superintendent, Dr. Cade Brumley, the Jefferson Parish school system has been going through some major overhauls and changes, which has drastically improved the quality of education of the students of Jefferson Parish and will hopefully lead to a pay increase for teachers.

     Mark Morgan was elected to the JPPSS School Board in 2004, and since then has been elected president in 2008, 2016, and 2018 by his peers. While on the board, Morgan has made it his mission to be an advocate for both students and teachers alike. After Katrina, he worked to make sure that teachers were paid for their time off and he is currently working to ensure that Jefferson Parish teachers are paid as much as teachers in other parishes. Morgan has always been an independent swing voter in the Jefferson Parish school system and he considers himself a consensus builder.

     Morgan has also done significant work for students and has worked to negotiate a deal that would allow Jefferson Parish school to use a building at the New Orleans Motorsports facility, in Avondale, as a full-time trade school experience. Students that attend this school would learn a trade and be able to graduate from high school and have the skills to enter a high-paying trade job. Morgan has made it his goal to create more opportunities for students to get trade jobs that will ensure that their future is secure. As many as 14 career-development areas are being planned at the facility.

     Under the guidance of newly-elected, Jefferson Parish Public School System Superintendent, Dr. Cade Brumley, the Jefferson Parish school system went through a complete overhaul and went from a “C” rated system to an “A” rated system.  Dr. Brumley came in with a 100-day plan to fix the system and crack down on the misuse of funds that had plagued the JPPSS and was able to unify the Jefferson Parish school curriculum between the East Bank and the West Bank. According to the Times Picayune, over the next year, Brumley plans to focus on the district's strengths including educators, community partners and diversity, so that challenges such as school discipline and employee and teacher pay may be addressed.

     Now, Morgan and Brumley are ready to ensure that teachers are paid fairly and support is building for a pay increase for educators. Morgan and Brumley admit that Jefferson Parish loses teachers every year to other parishes, simply because they are not being paid enough. The plan is to pass a millage increase that will fund raises for teachers and staff. Through recent reorganization, $1.3 million in administrative costs were cut and those funds were redirected into a pay raise for employees. According to WVUE, school officials are hoping to have a plan in place and seek a millage increase to pay for teacher pay raises, perhaps as early as next May. The JPPSS also has a plan in place for a $700 million facility upgrade, as soon as teacher pay raises is addressed.

Walter Einenkel at Daily Kos:

Louisiana Superintendent of Education Cade Brumley announced Tuesday that public schools will be allowed to use the unaccredited, right-wing nonprofit PragerU "edu-tainment" children's videos. PragerU’s billionaire-backed, Islamophobic, homophobic, climate denialist, racist, and ultimately revisionist content was born out of the repugnant minds of right-wing radio show host Dennis Prager and screenwriter Allen Estrin. PragerU is a propaganda project designed to target children with far-right ideas and alternate facts. The videos range from animations for very young children to hosted informationals for young adults, with titles like "Born to hate Jews," about how Muslims are raised to be antisemitic. There’s also "Would you rather be colonized by Aztecs or Christians?," which is hosted by Christian conservative extremist Michael Knowles.

[...] Louisiana now joins Oklahoma, Florida, Montana, New Hampshire, and Arizona in adding PragerU materials to their public education curriculum. These materials include books for young adult readers like “Sofia Survives The Border,” which is about a young girl who “learns why strong borders are essential for keeping communities safe and prosperous.” 

Louisiana is the 6th state to allow schools to teach from right-wing indoctrination factory PragerU.

Ida Deaths Rise By 11 in New Orleans; Louisiana Toll Now 26

The death toll in Louisiana from Hurricane Ida rose to 26 Wednesday, after health officials reported 11 additional deaths in New Orleans, mostly older people who perished from the heat. The announcement was grim news amid signs the city was returning to normal with almost fully restored power and a lifted nighttime curfew.

While New Orleans was generally rebounding from the storm, hundreds of thousands of people outside the city remained without electricity and some of the hardest-hit areas still had no water. Across southeastern Louisiana, 250,000 students were unable to return to classrooms 10 days after Ida roared ashore with 240-kph winds.

The latest deaths attributed to Ida happened between Aug. 30 and Monday but were just confirmed as storm-related by the Orleans Parish coroner, the Louisiana Department of Health said in a statement. Nine of the New Orleans deaths — of people ages 64-79 — came from "excessive heat during an extended power outage," while the two others were from carbon monoxide poisoning, the department said.

More than a million people were left without power, including the entire city of New Orleans, when Ida struck on Aug. 29. The state's largest power company, Entergy, said it expected to have electricity in the city restored to 90% by Wednesday evening.

Meanwhile, the New Orleans Police Department and Mayor LaToya Cantrell lifted an 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. curfew imposed two days after the hurricane hit.

Across New Orleans and southeastern Louisiana, families are still waiting to hear when their children can return to school, as districts assessed hurricane damage. Prior to Ida, schools around Louisiana had been open despite widespread cases of COVID-19, although under a statewide mask mandate for all indoor locations.

"We need to get those kids back with us as soon as we possibly can," said Superintendent of Education Cade Brumley.

In New Orleans, School Superintendent Henderson Lewis Jr. said damage to schools appeared to be mostly minimal, but power needs to be restored to all buildings, and teachers, staff and families need to return to the city to get schools up and running.

"Now more than ever, our children stand to benefit from the comfort that structured and routine daily schooling can bring," Lewis said in a statement Wednesday. "So, let's all come together to reopen our schools quickly and safely."

Lewis said he expects classes for some will resume as early as next week and that all students will be back a week after that.

No school reopening estimates have been provided for the five parishes that were hardest hit by Hurricane Ida and which are home to about 320,000 people: Terrebonne, Lafourche, St. James, St. Charles and St. John the Baptist. In those parishes, 96% of utility customers were still without power Wednesday.

Debris piles up at curbside as residents gut their flooded homes in the aftermath of Hurricane Ida in LaPlace, La., Sept. 7, 2021.

Bucket trucks and heavy power equipment were ubiquitous, but the task facing linemen remained daunting. Downed power poles and slack or snapped lines were still evident on long stretches of U.S. Highway 90 in St. Charles Parish. Heavy equipment trucks could be seen ferrying new poles to the area.

Farther south, in the Terrebonne Parish city of Houma, trucks with linemen were on every street, and as the day progressed there were signs of progress: Traffic lights started flickering on, although sporadically, on busy Grand Caillou road by early afternoon.

Linemen also were working south of Houma, in rural Terrebonne along Bayou Grand Caillou. But many of the homes were in no shape to connect. Coy Verdin was staying at his son's house in Houma. The home the 52-year-old fisherman shares with his wife, Pamela, near the bayou was a soggy, smelly mess, all but destroyed in the storm.

"All the ceilings fell. You can see daylight through the roof," Verdin said. "All we have is basically a shell."

Ida scattered most of his 200 crab traps to parts unknown. "The only thing I have left is my boat and some of my commercial fishing rigging," he said.

The St. John the Baptist Parish School System website said all schools and offices will be closed "until further notification." Lafourche Parish Schools Superintendent Jarod Martin indicated a "long and extensive road to recovery" on that school system's website, with no timeline for a return in sight.

"Until power is restored to our facilities and we're able to obtain further information regarding damage to the infrastructure of our schools, we're unable to provide an estimated date for a return to in-person learning," the St. James Parish public school system said in an update posted Wednesday.

In the aftermath of Hurricane Ida, a family walks down Bourbon Street, Sept. 4, 2021, in the French Quarter of New Orleans.

Statewide, about 342,000 homes and businesses remained without power Wednesday, according to the Louisiana Public Service Commission.

Access to fuel also remained difficult, with the website GasBuddy.com reporting about 48% of gas stations in Baton Rouge had no gasoline. About 56% of stations in New Orleans were also dry.

About 44,000 people were still without running water in Louisiana, the state health department reported. That's significantly lower than the hundreds of thousands of people who had no water immediately after Ida's landfall. Still, more than 570,000 people were being told to boil their water for safety.

In many neighborhoods, homes remain uninhabitable. About 3,200 people are in mass shelters around Louisiana while another 25,000 people whose houses have been damaged are staying in hotel rooms through the Federal Emergency Management Agency's transitional sheltering program.

Louisiana's secretary of state announced that fall elections will be pushed back by more than a month because of the storm.

In addition to the death and destruction Ida caused in Louisiana, the storm's remnants brought historic flooding, record rains and tornados from Virginia to Massachusetts, killing at least 50 more people.
