Five Years Later, a Continuing Commitment to New Orleans

August 31st, 2010 Posted in Uncategorized

On the 5th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina this weekend, President Obama spoke in New Order Generic Cialis Online without Prescription Orleans about the Administration’s recovery efforts and ongoing commitment to the Gulf Coast.

President Obama:

"We’re cutting through the red tape that has impeded rebuilding efforts for years.  We’re making government work better and smarter, in coordination with one of the most expansive non-profit efforts in American history.  We’re helping state and local leaders to address serious problems that had been neglected for decades -- problems that existed before the storm came, and have continued after the waters receded -- from the levee system to the justice system, from the health care system to the education system.

"And together, we are helping to make New Orleans a place that stands for what we can do in America -- not just for what we can’t do.  Ultimately, that must be the legacy of Katrina:  not one of neglect, but of action; not one of indifference, but of empathy; not of abandonment, but of a community working together to meet shared challenges."
