Securing the DNA of Lousianians from Foreign Adversary Countries.
Against GOP
This bill, the "Louisiana Human Genomic Security Act of 2025," prohibits medical and research facilities in Louisiana from using or putting into service new or additional human genetic sequencers or related software produced by foreign adversaries, including China, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, and Russia, or companies located in, or controlled by the governments of, those countries. The bill also prohibits storing human genetic information in U.S. foreign adversary countries and prohibits remote access to the information from these countries. This includes things like the results from DNA sequencing tests, such as whole-genome sequencing done in medical research, cancer diagnostics, ancestry testing, or personalized medicine. Detailed genetic info could be used for things such as bioweapons development, surveillance, identifying individuals/families, or other misuse by adversaries.

Supercharging Spending for Parish Councils on Aging by Over $3.5 Million.
Against GOP
This bill increases the per-person allotment for parish councils on aging to $4.00 (previously $2.50) per resident 60 or older, or $150,000 (previously $100,000), whichever is greater. The bill also increases the minimum annual appropriation to the Office of Elderly Affairs, from $6.9 million to over $10.4 million, an increase of over 52%. The state must pursue every available avenue to rein in its out-of-control spending, which, when coupled with the over $185 trillion in federal liabilities, represents the greatest existential threat facing this country.

Giving the Insurance Commissioner Unchecked Power to Set Home and Car Insurance Rates.
Against GOP
This bill allows the Commissioner of Insurance to disapprove insurance rates deemed "excessive, inadequate, or unfairly discriminatory." Previously, this authority was limited to disapproving rates for being "inadequate or unfairly discriminatory" in a competitive market or "excessive, inadequate, or unfairly discriminatory" in a noncompetitive market. The bill also requires insurance companies renewing homeowners' or private passenger motor vehicle policies to display the prior premium amount alongside the renewal premium. This bill is government overreach that hands the Insurance Commissioner unchecked power to reject rate increases deemed "excessive," effectively enabling state-sanctioned price fixing, discouraging insurers from investing in the state, reducing market competition, and ultimately driving up insurance premiums for consumers.

Expanding Consumer Choice by Making it Easier to Buy and Sell Residential Farm-Produced Food Products.
Against GOP
This bill exempts "farm food products" produced or grown at a residential farm from sanitary and other regulations. Under the bill, products must meet labeling requirements, such as the ingredients and a statement that the product is exempt from state licensing and inspection. Producers also must be registered with the U.S. Department of Agriculture and possess a Farm Service Agency number and be registered to collect sales tax. The bill limits annual sales to less than $50,000 to qualify for the exemption. The bill also increases the maximum annual sales limit for selling low-risk homemade foods from $30,000 to $150,000.

Promoting Workforce Reentry Through Weekly Job Search Requirements for Unemployment Recipients.
Against GOP
This bill requires that those receiving unemployment benefits must conduct at least five work search actions each week. The bill also expands disqualification criteria to include failing to appear for a scheduled job interview or participate in an approved training program. Additionally, the bill directs the secretary of the Louisiana Workforce Commission to establish a form for employers to report suspected work search violations. Combatting fraud within the state's unemployment insurance system is critical to maintaining low payroll taxes for businesses which are forced to pay into the system.

Attacking the Second Amendment by Establishing the Crime of "Unlawful Storage of a Firearm".
Against GOP
This bill establishes the crime of "Unlawful storage of a firearm" for leaving a loaded firearm in a residence or vehicle if a minor obtains the firearm and discharges it or exhibits it in public. This applies if the person knew, or should have known, that a minor was "likely to gain access to the firearm" without permission. The offense does not apply if the firearm is secured with a trigger lock or stored in a locked container. Violations carry a sentence of up to 6 months in jail and/or a fine of up to $1,000. The bill includes exceptions when a firearm was stolen or when a minor had permission to access the firearm for lawful purposes, such as hunting or sporting activities. This one size-fits-all mandate harms the ability of a responsible firearm owner to quickly defend themselves against an intruder.

Bringing Down the Cost of Prescription Drugs by Reigning in PBMs.
With GOP
This bill enacts comprehensive reforms to regulate Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs), including a ban on spread pricing (PBMs keeping the difference between what they charge plans and pay pharmacies), effective rate pricing for local pharmacies, and patient steering (directing patients to PBM-owned pharmacies without proper disclosure). It requires PBMs to pass through 100% of manufacturer rebates and discounts to plan sponsors rather than retaining any portion, with full disclosure of all PBM fees in contracts. The bill also expands transparency through detailed annual reports, audits by the Insurance Commissioner, and enforcement as unfair insurance practices. PBMs inflate prescription drug costs and reduce competition, ultimately driving up healthcare expenses for Louisiana consumers and threatening access to affordable medications.
Chapter 4 – Bring Back the American Dream and Make it Affordable Again for Families, Young People, and Everyone – Section #3 – Affordable Healthcare: Healthcare and prescription drug costs are out of control.

Expanding Medicaid by Hiking the Monthly Personal Needs Allowance at Long-Term Care Facilities.
Against GOP
This bill directs the Louisiana Department of Health to increase the personal needs allowance provided to Medicaid welfare recipients at long-term care facilities (nursing homes). Under the bill, the monthly allowance is increased by over 31%, from $38 to at least $50 for individuals and from $76 to at least $100 for couples, which are more than double the federal monthly minimum. The private sector (charitable entities) is best equipped to provide any additional needs or services to residents not provided by their long-term care facility. While this measure continues to grow government spending, it most concerningly serves as yet another incentive for government dependency over lifelong saving and personal fiscal responsibility.

Stopping Out-of-Control Spending by Establishing a "Government Growth Limit" Restricting General Fund Appropriations.
With GOP
This bill amends the state Constitution to establish a "Government Growth Limit," which restricts the amount of State General Fund revenues that can be appropriated in a fiscal year for recurring expenses, starting in Fiscal Year 2027-2028. The limit would be determined annually by the Revenue Estimating Conference. Any revenues above the "Government Growth Limit" but less than the "Expenditure Limit" may only be used for nonrecurring expenses. The growth limit may be changed by a 2/3 vote of each chamber of the legislature, but only if the growth factor in the previous 3 years was 2.5% or less. The state must pursue every available avenue to rein in its out-of-control spending, which, when coupled with the over $185 trillion in federal liabilities, represents the greatest existential threat facing this country.

It amends state law to establish a "contract limit" of $1,000,000 for public works projects undertaken directly by DCRT, allowing these smaller projects to proceed outside the standard capital outlay budget process and without certain competitive bidding or other requirements typically applied to larger contracts.

This bill requires state agencies and localities to verify the citizenship or immigration status of individuals who apply for federal, state, or local public assistance benefits, such as welfare, housing assistance, or food assistance, and to report applicants who are not U.S. citizens to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Agencies and localities also must discontinue providing any benefits upon a determination than a recipient is an illegal immigrant. Lawmakers must eliminate all incentives that may encourage illegal immigration, including taxpayer-funded benefits surrounding housing, education, and other welfare programs.

Reforming the Tax Code Within the Cigar Industry to Temporarily End Excessive Taxation of Premium Cigars.
With GOP
This bill temporarily establishes a maximum tax of 50 cents per cigar. Previously, cigars invoiced by the manufacturer at more than $120 per 1,000 were taxed at 20% (cigars invoiced at $120 per 1,000 or less are taxed at 8%). In 2026 and 2027, for cigars invoiced at more than $120 but less than $2,500 per 1,000, the tax rate remains at 20%. For cigars invoiced at $2,500 or more per 1,000, the tax rate is set at 50 cents per cigar. Beginning in 2028, the tax rate reverts to 20% for cigars invoiced at more than $120 per 1,000. This bill serves as a step in the right direction. Tobacco usage is an individual liberty, and products should only be subject to the standard sales tax rate. Users should not be punished through a 20% "sin tax".

Expanding Consumer Choice by Allowing Homeowners Insurance Companies to Offer Policies Based on "Stated Value" Rather than Solely Market Value.
With GOP
This bill enacts the "Stated Value Homeowner's Policy Act," which allows homeowners insurance companies to offer "stated value policies." Under this model, a homeowner may declare a specified amount of coverage for their residential property, rather than solely the market value, and insurance companies may choose to honor the stated value instead. Insurance companies that offer this option must prominently disclose its availability in policy proposals, agreements, and renewals. The bill requires certain disclosure language be provided to homeowners related to such policies, and sets a minimum policy value for such policies. Finally, the bill requires the Commissioner of Insurance to develop materials for consumers on the risks, disadvantages, and limitations of such policies. This bill expands consumer choice in the homeowners insurance marketplace.
Chapter 4 – Bring Back the American Dream and Make it Affordable Again – Section #1 – Housing Affordability: To help new home buyers, Republicans will reduce mortgage rates by slashing Inflation, open limited portions of Federal Lands to allow for new home construction, promote homeownership through Tax Incentives and support for first-time buyers, and cut unnecessary Regulations that raise housing costs.

Restoring Parental Control Over Kids' Online Safety.
With GOP
This bill enacts the "Kids Online Protection and Anti-Grooming Act," which establishes a duty of care for online platforms that contract with minors, such as social media and gaming sites, to impose certain privacy settings for minors by default. These include protections such as preventing adult connections to minors without parental consent, preventing private messaging between an unconnected adult and a minor, and preventing disclosure of a minor's location. Platforms are also required to allows a minor's parent or guardian to be notified if the minor is exposed to sexually explicit material or connects with another user. This empowers parents and legal guardians to play a more active, informed role in overseeing and protecting their children's online activities, rather than leaving those decisions primarily to tech platforms or unregulated interactions.

Ending Discrimination of Churches by Ensuring Places of Worship are Treated Equally to Secular Businesses.
Against GOP
This bill increases protection of religious liberties by prohibiting the government from imposing restrictions on places of worship that are more severe than those applied to secular businesses or assemblies. Additionally, if a place of worship meets the applicable zoning, building code, fire safety, and occupancy license requirements, the government may not restrict various uses of the property, such as restricting the type of religious instruction or activities, or certain uses related to homeschooling or private schools. This bill is especially necessary to guard from the egregious government overreach churches experienced during COVID.
Chapter 9 – Government of, by, and for the People – Section #3 – Republicans Will Defend Religious Liberty: We are the defenders of the First Amendment Right to Religious Liberty. It protects the Right not only to Worship according to the dictates of Conscience, but also to act in accordance with those Beliefs, not just in places of Worship, but in everyday life. Our ranks include men and women from every Faith and Tradition, and we respect the Right of every American to follow his or her deeply held Beliefs.

Reducing Auto Insurance Premiums by Increasing the Threshold for Uninsured Drivers to Recover Damages.
With GOP
This bill strengthens the state's "No Pay, No Play" law, which limits the ability of uninsured drivers to recover damages in motor vehicle accidents. Under the bill, the recovery threshold for uninsured drivers is increased from $100,000 (previously $15,000 for bodily injury and $25,000 for property damage). As a result, uninsured drivers involved in accidents cannot recover the first $100,000 in damages, regardless of fault. Additionally, if an uninsured driver files a civil action and is awarded damages equal to or less than the threshold, they are responsible for all court costs.

Hiking Energy Costs by Imposing Overreaching Regulations on Solar Energy Facilities.
With GOP
This bill allows the state and local governments to adopt regulations related to solar generation facilities. The bill requires a permit for a solar generation facility with a footprint of 10 acres or more. In order to obtain a permit, an application must include a decommissioning plan, proof of financial security, and letters of clearance from the Department of Wildlife and Fisheries and Department of Agriculture and Forestry. Additionally, if the solar generation facility is not within an industrial zone or Louisiana Economic Development certified site, the site must include a "buffer" containing setbacks and a "vegetative barrier" consisting of "native vegetation." The bill mandates minimum setbacks and "vegetative barrier" requirements based on the type of property bordered by the facility, imposes noise level limits, and prohibits spraying any chemicals for maintenance at the facility unless a plan for usage is approved by the Commissioner of Agriculture and Forestry and the applicable parish. The bill also prohibits the use of "lenses or mirrors to concentrate large amounts of sunlight" and agreements that would allow U.S. foreign adversaries or prohibited foreign actors to use agricultural land for solar development. Finally, the bill requires a permit to install a battery for renewable energy storage facilities, which requires proof of financial security and a decommissioning plan.

This bill extends the "Angel Investor Tax Credit Program," which provides income tax credits for investments in certain businesses, to June 30, 2026. The bill also modifies eligibility to require businesses be "high-growth" and primarily engaged in specific industries, such as logistics, aerospace and defense, or agribusiness. The bill also increases reporting requirements for participating businesses. All state and local tax codes should be constructed in a broadly applied manner with the lowest rates possible for everyone. Furthermore, the free market - not central planning by government bureaucrats - is best equipped to drive economic growth.
Chapter 3 – Build the Greatest Economy in History – Section #2 – Make Trump Tax Cuts Permanent and No Tax on Tips: Republicans will make permanent the provisions of the Trump Tax Cuts and Jobs Act that doubled the standard deduction, expanded the Child Tax Credit, and spurred Economic Growth for all Americans.

Prohibiting Tax Dollars from Being Used for DEI Programs at Government Agencies and Public Colleges and Universities.
Against GOP
This bill prohibits state agencies, departments, and offices, and public colleges and universities from operating any Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Office or asking prospective students or job applicants to provide diversity statements. Public colleges and universities are also prohibited from giving preferential treatment in admissions, state-supported financial aid, or services or benefits, based on factors such as race, sex, or gender identity. Finally, public colleges and universities are prohibited from requiring "DEI-related instructional content" in undergraduate courses, except in certain programs and departments. This measure helps protect taxpayer funds from being utilized to promote politicized DEI efforts which sow division amongst Americans and are intended to further grow the role of government.

Promoting American Energy Dominance by Prioritizing Domestic Energy Sources.
Against GOP
This bill directs the Department of Energy and Natural Resources "to prioritize affordable, reliable, and clean energy security." Under the bill, this includes prioritizing U.S.-produced energy sources, minimizing reliance on foreign nations for critical materials or manufacturing, and ensuring sufficient renewable energy sources, which must include energy generated by hydrocarbons. Additionally, the bill clarifies that nuclear energy and natural gas are included in the definition of "green energy" if they meet federal air quality standards, for purposes of state funding of clean or green energy initiatives. Low-cost energy is essential to growing the economy and improving the quality of life for all Americans. With renewable energy only accounting for about 20 percent of the U.S. energy supply, the country must adopt an "all of the above" approach to energy production that balances environmental concerns with the need to provide Americans with the lowest possible energy costs.
Chapter 3 – Build the Greatest Economy in History – Section #4 – Reliable and Abundant Low Cost Energy: Republicans will increase Energy Production across the board, streamline the permitting process, and end market-distorting restrictions on Oil, Natural Gas, and Coal. The Republican Party will once again make America Energy Independent, and then Energy Dominant, lowering Energy prices even below the record lows achieved during President Trump’s first term.

Adding Another Layer of Bureaucracy by Creating an Economic and Cultural District in Jeanerette which can Impose Additional Taxes and Issue Bonds.
Against GOP
This bill establishes the "Railroad Avenue Historic Cultural Economic District" in the city of Jeanerette for purposes such as economic development and to "provide for cultural enrichment and preservation." The bill allows the district to acquire property, impose a sales and use tax of up to 1% (if approved by voters), utilize tax increment financing, and issue bonds (debt) to finance projects. It is not the proper role of government to compete in the lending industry. Furthermore, the free market - not central planning tax schemes by bureaucrats - is the best mechanism to direct investment to the most promising initiatives and regions of the state.

Requiring State Agencies to Determine and Report the Immigration Status of State Services and Benefits Recipients.
Against GOP
This bill enacts the "State Services and Benefits Legal Status and Accountability Act," which requires several state agencies to collect and report data on the immigration status of individuals receiving state services and benefits. This includes services from departments such as the Department of Health, Department of Education, Department of Children and Family Services, and higher education institutions. The bill requires agencies to determine the legal status of individuals, calculate the total dollar value of services provided to illegal aliens and unaccompanied alien children, and submit annual reports containing this information, which must be publicly accessible. Lawmakers must eliminate all incentives that may encourage illegal immigration, including taxpayer-funded benefits surrounding housing, education, and other welfare programs.

Shifting Tax Burdens Through an Income Tax Credit for Donations to Poorly-Performing Schools.
Against GOP
This bill creates an income tax credit equal to 95% of donations to public schools that receive a "D" or "F" rating under the state accountability system. Schools must use the funds for purposes such as instructional materials, tutoring, childcare, or health services. The program is capped at $1 million in credits per year, and sunsets after the 2027 tax year. Rather than shifting tax burdens to provide additional funds for poorly-performing schools, lawmakers should instead reduce unnecessary and wasteful spending elsewhere to be used for school choice.

Hiking Health Insurance Premiums by Mandating Coverage for Proton Therapy for Cancer.
Against GOP
This bill requires most health insurance plans offered in the state to provide coverage for proton therapy or proton beam therapy when recommended for cancer treatment by the American Society for Radiation Oncology practice guidelines. Each and every health insurance mandate prevents an individual from selecting a plan with just basic or customized coverages to fit their specific needs. As a result, health insurers are forced to only offer costly plans loaded with coverages that most individuals do not need. This can result in lower-income or younger individuals choosing to purchase no insurance plan at all due to the high cost.

Blowing the Budget by Expanding the New Markets Tax Credit Program.
Against GOP
This bill expands the premium tax credit program for investments in qualified low-income community businesses. The bill increases the cap on eligible investment per business to $10 million (previously $5 million) for investments made on or after August 1, 2025. Additionally, the bill authorizes up to $150 million in qualified equity investment authority beginning August 1, 2025, which the bill's fiscal note states "provides an additional $82.5" million in premium tax credits. Similar New Markets programs in other states have delivered dismal returns— such as costing Alabama $92,000 and Missouri $146,000 per job created, or yielding just $0.18 in tax revenue per dollar spent in Florida— making this expansion likely to exacerbate Louisiana's budget shortfalls without meaningfully boosting economic growth or job creation in low-income areas.
