Hurricane Gustav and its Preparedness

Tweet

Last Sunday - Wednesday our state was hit hard by Gustav. I just wanted to give kudos to the Governor, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, on the great job he has done to prepare the state and the people for Hurricane Gustav. He updated the state everyday on what was going on and still is updating. The contraband flow went smooth and people were evacuated in a timely manner, and now he has some great disaster programs to help us all with our recovery. Jindal has learned from the mistake that the previous Gov. had made with the preparedness of a Hurricane. I also want to thank all the volunteers, National Guardsmen, Red Cross, FEMA, and the power company people, from other states, who has come into our state to help cleanup, bring food, water, and supplies and for helping to restore power. There is a lot of great, kindhearted people in this world. Does your state have a preparedness plan if a Hurricane or any other catastrophe takes place?
