Former Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott (R-MS) (left) is among those to lose a home in Hurricane Katrina. The 30 foot storm surge leveled his Pascagoula house -- where he had a view of the shipyards where his father once worked. The 154-year old house had weathered Hurricane Camille in 1969 without any water damage.
Rep Gene Taylor (D-MS) also lost his home in Bay St Louis. The Congressman and his son reached the site of his house by flat bottom boat and confirmed it was destroyed.
Rep William Jefferson (D-LA), Rep Bobby Jindal (R-LA), and Rep Charlie Melancon (D-LA) are uncertain about the conditions of their homes and district offices because they can't reach them.
