Don't Forget Hurricane Katrina and Rita Victims!
Target: 2008 Presidential CandidatesSponsored by: Oxfam America
Two years after the devastation brought on by Hurricane Katrina and Rita, the Gulf Coast is still hurting. Tens of thousands still live in temporary housing. Schools are closed. Businesses are struggling.
Continued neglect threatens to leave people poor and more at risk. With politicians are suffering from "Katrina amnesia," the current presidential candidates have a renewed chance to bring the Gulf Coast the help it needs.
Let's make sure the new leadership in the White House recognizes that, even though the issue isn't on the front pages anymore, the recovery is NOT over.
Rebuilding plans must be outlined for the southern states - before the next election.
Join us in asking the 2008 presidential candidates to issue their agenda outlining how, as president, they will recover the hurricane-devastated region!

We need to help those apart of Hurricane Katrina because they are people of our country. It's been three years and it's still not taken care of. In a nation, that includes in their name "United", we should be able to rebuild and take care of what happened regardless of time OR MONEY - overall the government should be taking care of it FOR THE PEOPLE.

The American government's primary function should be to work for American citizens. The levees need to be fixed. Please offer financial assistance and help for the victims of Hurricane Katrina and Rita. Please don't ignore the devastation on the Gulf banks.

Please don't ignore the devastation on the Gulf banks. People are trying hard to come back and start their lives again, but when entire wards in Louisiana are still unlivable, it seems that no one really cares. Let's rectify the great governmental disappointment and prove that we do care about our own citizens.

The levees need to be fixed. Please don't wait until another strong hurricane happens. Don't forget the people of New Orleans.

The American government's primary function should be to work for American citizens. There are people that are suffering here at home, daily. Please treat the situation as the emergency that it is. Thank you for your prompt attention to the matter.
