Hurricane Katrina is no longer making headlines, but Oprah maybe about to change that. Oprah is dedicating her show today to tell the Katrina Stories No One is Telling. Oprah will be telling you ways you can help today, but I thought I'd give you one you can do right now. Take Action and join the Progressive Democrats of America in opposing HR 4100, Louisiana Recovery Compensation Act.
The bill calls for buying large chunks of property ruined by Katrina, to clean it up, and then resell it to developers. It will pay the property owners up to 60% of the "current" value of their homes. The developers will then build new, more expensive homes,which means many of the people who were displaced by Katrina will get a check, but they'll also lose their homes and won't be able to afford moving back.
