Louisiana’s congressional delegation sent a letter Wednesday asking U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue to assist the crawfish industry through the CARES Act.
As previously reported, the closure of restaurant dining rooms has impacted the crawfish industry at the peak of its season. About two-thirds of the state’s crawfish harvesting is done from March through May.
