WEEKLY UPDATE ON WESTERN CAUCUS MEMBERS TAKING ACTION FOR RURAL AMERICA

NEW ORLEANS ENERGY & CONSERVATION FIELD TOUR

The Western Caucus Foundation was proud to host more than 70 Western Caucus members, staff, and stakeholders for a field tour in New Orleans where they toured Chevron Oronite, Venture Global LNG, and took a tour of the Davis Pond Diversion Project that is helping restore the coastal wetlands. The group was also briefed by the Louisiana CPRA and attended panel discussions on Rice’s Whale and Offshore Leasing’s contribution to conservation.

Thank you to our sponsors for helping to create a valuable experience in Louisiana.
