I just wrote to Governor John Bel Edwards about reopening Louisiana. Our businesses and our economy have suffered long enough! The time for action is NOW! #lalege #lagov #ReOpenLouisiana #COVID19 https://t.co/IGa6nZs7YH
The House Appropriations Committee is hearing my bill that, if passed, caps government spending to 98% of revenue our state brings in each year. This is an important CONSERVATIVE budget REFORM bill. #lalege https://t.co/hIroLjJcCZ
.@tbacala2 is right -- the Revenue Estimating Committee's projections don't always hit the nail on the head. Not their fault, they are PROJECTIONS. They don't have a crystal ball. This bill may help us avoid mid-year cuts by not appropriating 100% of the REC projection. #lalege
Good news! The bill has passed House Appropriations without objections. Moving to the full House... #lalege
I am very disappointed that @LouisianaGov vetoed my bill, HB 562. This fiscally responsible budget reform bill passed with 69.7% of the House voting YES and 100% of the Senate voting YES. #lalege #lagov
@calebrjones1 @LAGOP 310,000 people out of work and tax revenues were down $494,000,000 in April 2020 compared to April 2019. @LouisianaGov is delaying opening the state and helping DESTROY our economy! #lalege #lagov https://t.co/HVqBpEpHJ2 https://t.co/JhUfv89GjG
