A letter to Louisiana Legislators, a Prayer to amend Legislation.

Louisiana Legislators are proposing the desecration of 5 Cemeteries,taking of Churches and Homes to build a Reservoir in Washington Parishfor Economic Development to build homes around the Lake. How would you feel if your family’s graves were being disturbed?Citizens guilty of the desecration of a cemetery would be subject to a$500 fine and six months in jail. The Reservoir promoted by private developers serving on the ReservoirCommission has the support of elected officials they are in business with.Rep. Ritchie’s, Sen. Ben Nevers, and his co-partner corporations withReservoir Commission members will gain financially.Should taxpayers spend 40 to 50 million to make these officials wealthy? Rep. Ritchie, and Sen. Nevers say they want the Reservoir for EconomicDevelopment produced by building homes on the lake, but was unable toanswer when asked to name jobs created other than temporary construction,or a few minimum wage jobs. Commissions with the power to take property, do any and all things,consisting of friends, family members, and politically connected as a meansof Political Payback seems to be politics as usual in Louisiana. I pray other Legislators will amend Sen. Nevers Senate-Bill 278, andRep. Ritchie’s House-Bill 518 to also limit the Unchristian Desecration ofCemeteries, and the taking of Churches and Homes. Please help save Churches and Homes, desecration of Cemeteries,and make it possible for departed loved ones to REST IN PEACE.
