I’m grateful for the outreach from the Chair of NTSB who called to provide me with an update on the riverboat accident in New Orleans. Rescues continue and we pray that all passengers and crew are recovered safely. We are awaiting further updates and monitoring the situation.

Claims

1Can’t tellThe Chair of the NTSB called to provide an update on a riverboat accident in New Orleans.The sources confirm the NTSB chair was in phone contact about the New Orleans riverboat crash, but in a call with Rep. Troy Carter, not with the post's author, Speaker Johnson, as the claim implies. No source addresses a call from the NTSB chair to Johnson or what was said to him, so the claim as extracted cannot be graded.4 sources →
