NEW ORLEANS -- There's word that the federal government will start handing out debit cards to some Hurricane Katrina victims, as early as Wednesday.
A spokeswoman for Texas Gov. Rick Perry said the cards, worth $2,000 each, are going to be given to adult evacuees at the Astrodome.
There's no formal announcement yet from the federal government about the program. But, The Associated Press has learned that the Homeland Security chief described the plan to state officials during a conference call Wednesday.
A state official who took part in the call said people displaced by the storm could use the cards to buy necessities such as food and gas.
