I recently spent 3 hours in New Orleans lower ninth ward “lovebug swatting” while camera crews filmed Miss Juliette Allen for our Public Service Announcement (PSA) released today to an anticipating audience at a press conference. They were not disappointed by the 30-second video and also a second PSA featuring a toddler in nearby St. Bernard Parish.

Members of southeast Louisiana know that lovebugs swarm this time of year. Though harmless, they messed up some footage that we had to re-shoot. But Miss Allen was so patient and gave a splendid performance despite the physical and emotional hardship she endured.

Click here to view our two newest PSAs. Then, if you haven’t already, please demand the 8/29 Investigation Act.

Thank you,
