Vitter Sends Feinberg Specific List Of Frustrated Louisianians
(Washington, D.C.) – U.S. Sen. David Vitter today called on Gulf Coast Claims Facility administrator Ken Feinberg to immediately address the concerns of a growing number of Louisianians who have not received timely and equitable treatment in the claims process resulting from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill last April. Vitter’s letter included a list of specific Louisianians to whom Feinberg and GCCF have broken promises to follow through promptly on their claims.
“Ken Feinberg has unfortunately shown a pattern of making flimsy promises to the Louisianians who need his help, and he’s compounded this by offering evasive and incomplete responses to my direct inquiries about his handling of the claims process,” said Vitter. “My office has uncovered a number of small business owners and other Louisiana residents who are being subjected to bureaucratic hell as they try to navigate this claims process and deal with Mr. Feinberg’s office.”
