re: Jindal signs bill killing levee board lawsuit and undermines BP Settlement?

quote:

"Rep. John Bel Edwards said BP lobbied for the bill, which increases his suspicion that it might impact those lawsuits."

but BP would have been liable under the levee board suit based on their previous activities in the wetlands.... so, of course they would have lobbied for it. still not drawing the connection from this to the spill personally.

and again, i'm 100% against this bill... just don't see the connection.
