VICTORY! This Rally Has Met Its Goal!

Don't touch the CPRA!

Don't touch the CPRA!
Governor Landry, 

The Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority (CPRA) was created for the people of Louisiana to protect their way of life and to assure the best possible flood protection. 

The CPRA is highly effective due to its stand-alone structure. 

Placing the CPRA under the Louisiana Department of Energy and Natural Resources is a dangerous move which will harm the safety of Louisiana residents.

Furthermore, reducing the size of the CPRA board and advisory board (all who are unpaid volunteers) will rob the people of Louisiana of a trove of expertise and knowledge.

Governor Landry, please don't restructure the CPRA!

Thank you for signing! It worked! See below!4/1/2024

Thank you for signing our petition to LA Governor Jeff Landry requesting that he maintain the stand-alone structure of the state’s Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority (CPRA). 


It worked! 


The governor’s plan to alter the CPRA appears “on hold” according to an in-depth article by veteran journalist Mark Schleifstein in the New Orleans Advocate this past Friday

The petition and the letter campaign showed that we cannot underestimate the power of the citizen-at-large to rise up, be seen and get heard. 


As we near another hurricane season, we can rest a little easier knowing that the CPRA can continue its nationally recognized projects since its creation after the levees broke in August 2005.

Again, thank you for your action! 


Sincerely, Sandy Rosenthal, founder and president of Levees.org
