Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry, with the help of his solid Republican majorities, signed off on a laundry list of legislation that spells out a Republican agenda that could ping the national GOP’s radar.
The dozens of new laws passed in Mr. Landry’s first legislative session include conservative priorities such as universal school choice, allowing state police to arrest immigrants who are in the U.S. illegally, a ban on DEI instruction in schools, a ban on college groups funded by terrorist organizations, and codifying a biological definition of men and women in state law.
“Since January, our administration has been working diligently to create a government in Louisiana that is as good as her people. I am proud to say we have delivered on our promises this session — a promise of a safer, healthier and more prosperous state,” Mr. Landry said. “I want to thank the entire Legislature for their hard work.”
