The Gulf Coast Remembers: 1 Year Later

     

    Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal participated with other Gulf Coast Parish Presidents in a ceremony and moment of silence Wednesday on Grand Isle to commemorate those who lost their lives in the Deepwater Horizon Oil Rig Explosion 1 year ago.

    Listen HERE to Governor Jindal’s comments on the lost workers and to the moment of silence:

    Editor’s Note: BP is suing rig owner Transocean for at least $40 billion dollars in damages.  BP is also suing the maker of the blowout preventer that failed to stop the oil spill.   The separate court filings were made in Federal court in New Orleans Wednesday.
