In the past two years, Governor Jeff Landry has interfered with the leadership of the Flood Protection Authority-East which is responsible for maintaining and operating the $14.5 billion flood system protecting Greater New Orleans. 

The governor’s actions have done the following: 1) instigated a mass resignation of knowledgeable expert board members, 2) lead to the firings and forced resignations of the top department heads with decades of experience, and 3) resulted in millions of dollars annually being switched from flood protection to unneeded extra police. 

Our legislators in Baton Rouge can change this, and you have the power to convince them. Senators Eddie Lambert, Pat Connick, Cameron Henry, Sidney Barthelemy II, Gregory Miller and Bob Owen all have board commissioners who reside in their district, HOWEVER, they have not yet been confirmed by the Senate. 

With ONE CLICK, send a letter to the seven senators who can use their influence to stop this nonsense by preventing the confirmation of the governor’s hand-picked board members.
