I know that Louisiana is kinda passed over as a lost cause and is therefore mostly ignored by leftist twitter, but we’ve had our gender conforming care for minors ban bill today and officials are talking about conversion therapy for trans kids at the legislative session. #lalege https://twitter.com/ppgulfcoast/status/1653447665907015682

Louisiana is also one of only 12 (might be 11 now) states that elect their Public Service Commissioners. (and most of those states don't let commissioners accept campaign cash from utilities like Louisiana does) #lalege #lagov https://twitter.com/MelindaDeslatte/status/1640408700123856897

I have proposed raising the state minimum wage from its dismal $7.25/hour every year that I’ve been governor. It was an unacceptable minimum wage when I took office in 2016, and it’s downright immoral now in 2023 as we deal with inflation. #lagov #lalege
