“#LNG has been an economic boost to LA, and the Biden admin’s pause threatens to drive more jobs and opportunities out of our state. This much is clear: Louisianans cannot afford the Biden admin’s policy,” outlined @PelicanInst.

"We also celebrate the things that make Louisiana a unique place to live. But being the only state in the US to license florists is something we should find embarrassing, not celebrated.
Florists in every other state in the US make weddings, funerals, bar and bat mitzvahs, Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, birthdays, and apologies happen without a permission slip from the government.
The licensing requirement is anti-entrepreneur, anti-consumer, and anti-competitive. Active market participants with an interest in restricting new market entrants get to decide who gets to work, and who doesn’t." #lalege #lagov
Thank you to the leadership of @BurgessOwens@virginiafoxx and @MikeJohnson for your help in getting HR 6655 passed. This is the first chance in a decade to reform a system that is failing job seekers, employers, and those who are living in poverty or are out of work. #lalege #lagov
Louisiana cannot afford to remain trapped with an inflexible state budgeting process. Lawmakers should refrain from dedicating even more tax dollars to dedicated uses and instead prioritize a comprehensive review and reform of the state budget to fund essential needs. #lalege #lagov #labudget 🔗 https://t.co/IrrhGYfYc0
Pelican is excited to release “Meant for More: How Integration of Workforce and Social Services Can Lift Louisiana’s People from Poverty to Opportunity,” based on successful models implemented in other states. Louisiana’s safety nets have sadly made poverty survivable, but not escapable. With a focus on work and self-sufficiency, Governor Landry and his Cabinet, with support from the Legislature, can significantly reduce poverty and build the workforce Louisiana needs for a thriving economy. #lalege #lagov Read the release here 🔗 https://t.co/PUROJu9a2z
Our New Year's resolutions are clear - expand job opportunities, boost the state economy, save taxpayer money, and increase human dignity in Louisiana. Read to learn more about how strategic workforce solutions can pave the way for a better future.

FWIW: I asked about the cost of paid parental leave in state government...and was told by civil service that the cost could not be calculated easily. #lalege#lagov
Louisiana moved down the list from 39 to 40 this year because we failed to make any significant improvements to our tax structure this year, while other states, like our neighbor Mississippi who move up 7 spots, made huge changes. #lalege#lagov
