Good morning.
Professional soccer appears on its way to New Orleans. The 10-year-old United Soccer League, the largest pro soccer organization in North America, wants to start its New Orleans franchise before 2026. A promotional campaign will begin this week, seeking fans’ opinions on where the team should play, its name and its colors.

The expansion includes the chain’s first locations in both New Orleans and Lafayette.

That means those policyholders aren’t entitled to reimbursements for expenses such as food, fuel and hotels while feeing the storm.
