Our day in courtCome out on July 19th to show out for democracy!
The past New Orleans City Council violated New Orleanians’ constitutional rights at the critical public meetings concerning Entergy’s gas plant application — the Oct. 16th (last fall) public hearing, and the Feb 21st Utility Committee meeting. The corrupted democratic process around Entergy’s gas plant proposal has made national headlines. When: Thursday, July 19 at 10 am Where: New Orleans District Court, Civil Division (421 Loyola Ave, New Orleans, Louisiana 70112) |
