General Honore, BP Health Victims Call for Justice as 8th Anniversary of BP Oil Spill Approaches

Press Conference on Friday, April 20, 2018 on the steps of the FEDERAL COURTHOUSE in New Orleans with GENERAL RUSSEL HONORE AND HEALTH VICTIMS OF THE BP Oil.

NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA, USA, April 15, 2018 /EINPresswire.com/ -- WHAT: PRESS CONFERENCE WITH GENERAL RUSSEL HONORE AND HEALTH VICTIMS OF THE BP Oil Spill

WHEN FRIDAY, APRIL 20, 10:30 A.M.

WHERE: 500 Poydras Street, Steps of Federal Court Building, Downtown New Orleans

WHO: GENERAL RUSSEL HONORE, THE GREEN ARMY. VICTIMS AND RESIDENTS IMPACTED BY THE BP GULF OIL DISASTER OF 2010 INCLUDING FISHERMAN GEORGE BARASICH AND OTHERS

WHY: Eight years ago, the largest oil spill in America's history was caused by the explosion of the Deepwater Horizon project owned and operated by BP; 11 individuals died and millions of Americans have been impacted. Yet of the more than 37,000 qualified medical benefit claims submitted by cleanup workers, first responders and coastal residents, only 40 have been paid. Worse, while the Plaintiffs Steering Committee for this disaster walked away with between $350 and $700 million in fees and the Claims Administrator walked away with $155 million, all the victims who were compensated shared in only a $60 million payment. Those paid from that $60 million represent only a small fraction of the injured who helped in the cleanup and live in the designated impact zones. General Honore and health victims speak up as the anniversary of the largest oil spill disaster in American history’s approaches and says: We won’t let the rest of America forget!
