  • 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.

  • Membership in the Louisiana House of Representatives
    MEMBERSHIP IN THE LOUISIANA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 1812 - 2024 Revised – July 28, 2021 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.
