LA HB 461 - (Government proposal to hide records from public)

Yeah that's BS. Maybe change your thread title so people see what this is about. No way this bill should pass.

This will be a license for Louisiana government to become even more corrupt.

To infinity and beyond, apparently.

....related to...

... anything and EVERY thing these days

Exactly when did this, "We have to pass the bill before we can see it" bullsh# begin? Right -- the 'Patriot Act'.

Rogue, even more corrupt elements (see Agenda 2030) are now subservient to the Global Agenda. Goobmint at the Local, State and Feral level are in control.

Two responses to this bill:

1) This exception already exists for LED, so it’s not a completely new idea.

2) The bill goes too far to fill a gap that absolutely needs to be filled. I’ve worked on municipal economic development projects, and they are HARD to work on. Companies have a disincentive to share information about their business, including its financials or operating documents, because they are immediately public (even if no deal happens). It hamstrings all sides. But I think once a deal is signed, the records should be public except for any confidential business information. Allow the parties room to negotiate, but make them public at the end.
