Written by Stephen Sabludowsky
Before the new Democratic governor could even spend his first full month in the Governor’s mansion, Jon Bel Edwards, as expected, came under fire. He must have known it would happen.

by Stephen Waguespack, President and CEO of Louisiana Association of Business and Industry
Last week was a noteworthy week.
For likely the first time in our state’s history, the Governor delivered a state of the state address to the people of Louisiana to discuss the government’s budget shortfall.

It was a pretty rare moment to have that scene play out in living rooms across the state, but all the while, all I could think about was the speech not being given that night.
