Ed Pratt Quotations

People are applying right now. We're getting thousands. We're going to go to shelters (to help people) apply.

We've gone to virtually every shelter in the state.

You have a lack of housing in the New Orleans area, utilities out in a good portion of the city, people looking for schools for their children, you don't have day care or transportation. Those are just some of the reasons why people are staying put where they are and not going home.

There's nothing like this, this one was a devastating act of nature.
