Treasury Secretary John Snow said "that though the hurricane might have suddenly driven some Gulf Coast residents to file for bankruptcy," "the new law shouldn't be delayed or changed." The Treasury office will not help Hurricane Katrina victims with debt cancellation.
Hurricane jobless claims in late August, totaled over 190,000.
No debt cancellation is expected for the victims of Hurricane Katrina. They will be given a payment deferral for up to 90 days.

18 poor nations will get debt cancellation
For 18 poor nations there will be debt cancellation according to U.S. Treasury Secretary John Snow. It is expected that $55 billion will be given as "debt forgiveness". At a meeting of the World Bank's steering group, Snow said "With the crushing debt burden lifted, countries can focus their efforts on generating economic growth by investing in infrastructure to help move goods from producers to purchases and by investing in their people" through health and education projects," Snow said.
