  • Louisiana State University Student Government
    Louisiana State University Student Government Dear LSU Students and Friends, Students in the state of Louisiana are more relevant than ever before. Before the release of the first Higher Education Report Card, students pursuing a degree were not valued in the state of Louisiana—proven by the 41% cut to higher education over the past 8 years. Contrary to popular belief, investment in higher education is the best societal investment that our state lawmakers can make. Because of our initial report card, leaders in the legislature are listening. The Higher Education Report Card is a huge step forward in ensuring that students are heard in the state of Louisiana. The requests are clear. We want stability in higher education and a sincere commitment to invest in the future of our students. We extend our sincerest gratitude to the governor and lawmakers for their work during the longest legislative session in the history of the state. Unfortunately, a session ending in a fully funded higher education and a partially funded TOPS is not ideal for Louisiana’s students. My hope is that the Higher Education Report Card can shed light onto the difficult votes that our lawmakers made during these sessions to ensure that our education would be fully funded. At the same time, I hope students will see that some of their own lawmakers are still not valuing our education as much as they can. We also hope that students will continue to be involved with the affairs of our state capitol by participating in marches and making calls to their legislators.

In the case of retirees, we want our elected officials to protect our current Defined Benefit plan guaranteed in our state constitution.

  • SD-EITC-Data-1.Pdf
    The impact of Louisiana’s Earned Income Tax Credit by state Senate District Thousands of low and moderate-income households in each Louisiana state senate district benefit from the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC). Currently, Louisiana has one of the lowest state EITCs in the country at 3.5 percent of the federal EITC. A modest increase in the state EITC would help to offset a partial sales tax renewal and improve earnings of working families across the state. Click the link below to see how an increase in the state EITC would benefit families in each senate district: Senate District 1 - Sen. Sharon Hewitt Senate District 21 - Sen. R.L.
