Original Note:
While DeSantis did vote for HR 213 “Sandy Recovery Improvement Act of 2013”, he along with many republicans did not vote for HR 152 because it included substantial spending unrelated to Sandy Relief. (Over 2/3 of the spending was for projects dated 2015 or later) https://www.cbo.gov/sites/default/files/summarydrappropact2013-hr152-passedhouse00.pdf https://www.congress.gov/bill/113th-congress/house-bill/219/all-actions-without-amendments?s=3&r=30 https://thefederalist.com/2017/08/31/sandy-relief-bill-chock-full-pork/ https://www.thefiscaltimes.com/Articles/2012/12/19/Congress-Piles-the-Pork-into-Hurricane-Sandy-Relief
