Sen. Gary Smith, D-Norco, right, speaks to Senate attorney Riley Boudreaux in Baton Rouge, La. on Wednesday, April 16, 2014 about a bill to give the governor more authority over two New Orleans-area flood protection boards. Senators advanced a proposal Wednesday that would let the governor remove board members for violating what he considers to be public policy, despite concerns it would introduce political meddling into state flood protection.
