quote:

A Louisiana Senate committee April 17 moved a step closer toward a major rewrite of the state’s public records laws that would decimate the state’s current law and help shield elected officials from mayors to the governor from scrutiny.

The Senate and Governmental Affairs Committee advanced two proposals targeting the public’s access to government records in the state, including one that would essentially gut the public’s current right-to-know laws.

Senate Bill 482 by Sen. Heather Cloud, a Ville Platte Republican, would exempt all Louisiana government agencies from turning over “any records involving opinions, recommendations, and deliberations in formulating decisions or policies" — basically any public records of note.




I can't speak for everyone, but I can only see a brighter future once this gets passed.

This is patently wrong and I can see no reason whatsoever how this is in the public’s best interest

It’s raising a red flag about Landry
