Guess who's too poor to evacuate Houston and is getting left in the path of the storm?

Suprise! Katrina victims.

Houston hotel hosts Katrina evacuees

CNN's John Zarrella in Houston, Texas
Posted: 9:36 a.m. ET

We stayed overnight in Houston at a Marriott Courtyard. Turns out the hotel is hosting many Katrina evacuees from New Orleans. The general manager is keeping his hotel open with only 13 volunteer employees. He said there was no way he would shut down because the Katrina evacuees had no place to go. Those evacuees occupy 53 of his rooms and he expects they will be here until the end of the year.



Their have been emergency evacuations in Houston of Hospitals and Nursing homes. How is it possible Katrina refugees who obviously have no money and nowhere to go, otherwise they wouldn't still be in Houston, are getting left behind?
