Membership in the Louisiana House of Representatives MEMBERSHIP IN THE LOUISIANA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 1812 - 2020 Revised – May 21, 2019 David R. Poynter Legislative Research Library Louisiana House of Representatives 1 2 PREFACE This publication is a result of research largely drawn from Journals of the Louisiana House of Representatives and Annual Reports of the Louisiana Secretary of State. Other information was obtained from the book, A Look at Louisiana's First Century: 1804-1903, by Leroy Willie, and used with the author's permission. The David R. Poynter Legislative Research Library also maintains a database of House of Representatives membership from 1900 to the present at http://drplibrary.legis.la.gov . In addition to the information included in this biographical listing the database includes death dates when known, district numbers, links to resolutions honoring a representative, citations to resolutions prior to their availability on the legislative website, committee membership, and photographs. The database is an ongoing project and more information is included for recent years. Early research reveals that the term county is interchanged with parish in many sources until 1815. In 1805 the Territory of Orleans was divided into counties. By 1807 an act was passed that divided the Orleans Territory into parishes as well. The counties were not abolished by the act. Both terms were used at the same time until 1845, when a new constitution was adopted and the term "parish" was used as the official political subdivision. The legislature was elected every two years until 1880, when a sitting legislature was elected every four years thereafter. (See the chart near the end of this document.) The War of 1812 started in June of 1812 and continued until a peace treaty in December of 1814. No legislature met in 1813. The historic Battle of New Orleans was fought in January of 1815, preventing a legislature from meeting in that year as well. During the Civil War there were two elected legislatures meeting simultaneously. (See the chart near the end of this document.) In 1877 the Republican and Democratic parties convened two separate legislatures in New Orleans. The Republican legislature lost strength as a result of President Ulysses S. Grant refusing to send military forces to support the Republican legislature. In disappointment, many Republicans either changed party or simply decided to attend the Democratic legislature. Newly inaugurated president, Rutherford B. Hayes, withdrew all federal troops from Louisiana in April of 1877. This was the beginning of the end of the Reconstruction Era in Louisiana. Membership lists for 1877 are based on the Journal for the 1877 Extraordinary Session. Information for the Regular Session is not available. Either the Journal was not published for that legislative session, or it has become a rare publication that cannot be found. 3 Members of the Orleans Parish delegation are listed by district number as well as political party from 1944 to the present. District numbers for East Baton Rouge, Jefferson, and Lafayette Parishes are listed beginning 2012. All districts are listed beginning with the 2016-2020 term. This is a work in progress. As more information is found it is entered or corrected. Journals list the election and oath of office taken by legislators on the first day of a legislative session, in most cases. However, one must read the entire Journal proceedings for each session to learn of the death, resignation, election challenges, and unseating of members. This has not yet been done for all the years listed. The period from 1861 (Civil War) until 1880 (through Reconstruction) is especially difficult to research since there were Journals listing delegates, with no parish or party designation. During the Civil War, there were two legislatures meeting simultaneously, with few records documenting the Confederate legislature, which met in north Louisiana. Additional information from the Louisiana public on the legislative membership is encouraged and invited by writing to: Library Director David R. Poynter Legislative Research Library P.O. Box 94012 Baton Rouge, LA 70804-9012 You may also contact the library by e-mail at [email protected]. Please use a subject line of House Membership. 4 Abbreviations Used in This Publication: E.S.

A complainant alleged that a patient could not move his lower extremities after the insertion of an epidural catheter (small hollow tube used to inject anesthetic between the spinal canal and spinal cord). The complainant believed that the catheter caused the patient’s paralysis. We did not substantiate the allegation. However, we found that the patient’s paralysis may have resulted from a prolonged period of hypotension (low blood pressure) in the intensive care unit (ICU). We concluded that the hypotension was poorly monitored and should have been treated more aggressively. During our review, we found that ICU nursing staff did not document required patient assessments. There was no documentation of the mean arterial pressures needed to adjust medications prescribed for low blood pressure, no documentation of the epidural catheter or of neurological assessments, and inconsistent documentation of verbal orders and administered medications. In addition, we found that the medical center’s system of reporting and evaluating adverse events needed improvement.

  • Weekly Legislative Digest
    Louisiana Federation of Teachers Weekly Legislative Digest May 1, 2015 Steve Monaghan, President * Les Landon, Editor 2015 Regular Legislative Session Now available on the Web at http://la.aft.org Panel votes to silence public employees Despite the best arguments of teachers, firefighters, police officers and other public servants, the House Labor and Industrial Relations Committee approved a bill that will make it inconvenient for employees to join and maintain membership in the union or association of their choice. The purpose of HB 418 by Rep. Stuart Bishop (R-Lafayette) is to weaken unions like the Louisiana Federation of Teachers and Louisiana Association of Educators. These are the groups that have raised questions about, and led the opposition to, so-called “reforms” backed by big business that all too often result in the privatization of education and diminution of the teaching profession. HB 418 would revoke the right of public employees to pay their union or association dues through payroll deduction. Since local governments currently have the authority to grant payroll deduction, the bill is seen by school boards and others as legislative meddling in their prerogatives. The bill is the brainchild of the Louisiana Association of Business and Industry, which has been twisting the arms of lawmakers to force its passage. The big business lobby recruited the Koch brothers backed Americans for Prosperity to publicly promote the bill. It is an example of what columnist Stephanie Grace, in another context, called “an ugly yet ascendant strain in American politics, a willingness to use any means necessary, no matter what chaos ensues or who gets hurt.” The vitriol motivating the bill’s supporters was on full display when an amendment was proposed to exempt the teacher unions from its prohibitions.
