President Barack Obama remembered Hurricane Katrina today. It has been four years since the horrible natural disaster struck New Orleans, LA. Rebuilding has been tough for many locations, but President Obama promises the citizens of New Orleans have not been forgotten. His future goals for New Orleans involve everything from additional police officers to construction of new schools. President Obama plans on making a trip to New Orleans within the year.

  2. I agree, it definitely does not feel like it's already been 4 years. It's crazy that there is STILL work to be done in New Orleans and that things still need to be rebuilt, even after 4 whole years. Good job!

  3. Even four years later, people in New Orleans still feel pain left behind from Katrina. I agree with the President that we can't forget them, and I hope that the continuing plans for rebuilding New Orleans will stimulate the city's economy and provide new jobs.
