    ACTION ALERT Contact the House Ways and Means Committee to Avoid Elimination of Waivers and Other Programs The legislature is expected to meet in Special Session beginning on February 14, 2016 to address the budget shortfall for this fiscal year and next. On January 27th the Department of Health and Hospitals (DHH) announced that $131 million in cuts would be implemented if the Legislature failed to find additional revenues to address this year's anticipated shortfall. Two options to address the budget shortfall were included in the press release, one of which eliminates: All waiver services for people with developmental disabilities impacting 11,678 current recipients (NOW, Children's Choice, Supports Waiver, ROW) All waiver services for seniors and people with adult-onset disabilities impacting 6,481 current recipients (Community Choices and Adult Day Health Care) Medicaid Long Term Personal Care Services impacting 17,300 current recipients Intermediate Care Facilities for People with Developmental Disabilities impacting 4,914 current residents Other optional Medicaid programs such as Hospice, Hemodialysis, Pediatric Day Health Care, and the "medically necessary override" provision to the adult pharmacy prescription limit. Both options include a reduction in the payments to Bayou Health insurers. All state revenue matters are heard in the House Ways and Means Committee. If these DHH services are important to you, now is the time to let committee members know. And if you have not already done so, contact your state representative and senator as well.

  • Jim Harris NOVEMBER 3 PRIMARY ELECTIONS…
    Wednesday, November 4, 2020 FROM: Jim Harris NOVEMBER 3 PRIMARY ELECTIONS…While the seat of the U.S. presidency remains contested, Louisiana also saw an eventful election night. Elections for state and legislative officials occur in “off years,” but there were contests for congressmen, one U.S. senator, judges and several other positions last night. Overall voter turnout in the state neared 70 percent. U.S. Sen. Bill Cassidy, R-Baton Rouge, handily won reelection with 59 percent of the vote. Of his 14 opponents, the next highest was Democratic Shreveport Mayor Adrian Perkins, who took 19 percent. Each had the backing of their respective national parties. All sitting congressmen were easily reelected: 1st District U.S. Rep. Steve Scalise, R-Metairie (72 percent); 2nd District U.S. Rep. Cedric Richmond, D-New Orleans (64 percent); 3rd District U.S. Rep. Clay Higgins, R-Lafayette (68 percent); 4th District U.S. Rep. Mike 521 LAUREL STREET BATON ROUGE, LOUISIANA 70801 1.800.545.3404 225.344.0381 FAX 225.336.0211 Johnson, R-Shreveport (60 percent); and 6th District U.S. Rep. Garret Graves, R-Baton Rouge (71 percent). All had multiple opponents. In the 5th Congressional District vacated by U.S. Rep. Ralph Abraham, R-Alto, who did not seek reelection after a failed attempt at the governor’s seat, there will be a runoff on December 5, as predicted. The candidates remain Luke Letlow, R-Start, who served as Abraham’s chief of staff and campaign advisor, and state Rep. Lance Harris, R-Alexandria, former head of the House Republican Delegation.
