David Vitter (R-La.) today made the following statement on the U.S. District Court for Eastern District ruling that BP was grossly negligent in the 2010 Deepwater Horizon disaster in the Gulf of Mexico.\n\u201cNo one felt the effects of the Deepwater Horizon disaster more than the citizens of Louisiana,\u201d Vitter said. \u201cFinishing the job of properly holding BP accountable and making sure that the appropriate penalties go toward restoring the damaged Gulf Coast have been top priorities of mine. Today\u2019s ruling should help make sure a significantly higher dollar figure is apportioned to rectifying the impacts still felt in Louisiana.\u201d", 1, "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z", "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://web.archive.org/web/20140904235901/http://www.vitter.senate.gov/newsroom/press/vitter-comments-on-judge-ruling-that-bp-was-grossly-negligent-in-deepwater-horizon"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.8767768740653992, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
