  • Oppose Constitutional Convention Q4: Repeal GPO/WEP Q5
    LEGISLATORS RESPONSES TO THE LRTA SURVEY The Louisiana Retired Teachers Association surveyed political candidates during the 2019 election cycles. The Association asked the candidates the following questions: 1. LRTA opposes any legislation that would alter the defined benefit structure of the Teachers’ Retirement System of Louisiana (TRSL). During previous legislative sessions, several bills were created to switch the current defined benefit plan provided by TRSL to a hybrid plan. LRTA continues to oppose these bills, such as SB 14 (2018) and HB 28 (2019). If similar bills appeared in future legislative sessions, would you oppose or veto these bills? 2. LRTA supports Permanent Benefit Increases (PBIs) when the criteria to grant one is met. TRSL benefit recipients have not received a PBI since 2016. Would you support legislation to grant a PBI should TRSL meet the criteria to grant one? 3. LRTA opposes constitutional conventions that would remove budgetary protections for education and retirement. If constitutional convention is proposed in a future legislative session, would you oppose or veto these bills? 4. LRTA supports the repeal of the Government Pension Offset (GPO) and the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP). The GPO and the WEP are Social Security federal provisions that reduce retired public employee’s individual Social Security and survivor benefits. Retired teachers in Louisiana are subject to the GPO and WEP. Given the opportunity, would you support the repeal of the GPO and WEP? 5. LRTA supports teacher and support staff pay raises and adequately funding education through the Minimum Foundation Program (MFP). Do you support teacher pay raises and adequately funding education through the MFP?

    Fall 2019 Ready, Set ... VOTE! By: Rodney R. Watson As we move into the final days before state elections, we often reflect on our reasons for voting for a particular candidate. In the case of retirees, we want our elected officials to protect our current Defined Benefit plan guaranteed in our state constitution. As you go into the voting booth you might consider the following quote often attributed to President Lyndon Johnson: “A man without a vote is a man without protection.” How do we make informed voting decisions, and which candidates will protect our cur- rent benefit plan? LRTA annually adopts a list of Legislative Priorities that helps our members focus on issues aimed at benefit- ing and protecting our retirement benefits.

  • 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.

The response I’ve received from parents, educators, the public, and my colleagues, has been overwhelmingly in support of our students need to return to a normal scholastic schedule for the upcoming year, including extracurricular sports. One of the most compelling justifications for a return to a normal scholastic schedule came directly from the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), one of the most respected pediatric health organizations in the world: “The AAP strongly advocates that all policy considerations for the coming school year should start with a goal of having students physically present in school.” “The importance of in-person learning is well-documented, and there is already evidence of the negative impacts on children because of school closures in the spring of 2020.

Q: I have a meeting set up with an elected official. How should I address him/her? A: A few tips: • Address elected officials by referencing their position first and then their last name – e.g., “Board Member Smith,” or “Representative Jones.” If specifically addressing the head of a committee, then use “Chairman or Chairwoman Adams,” etc. • Introduce yourself and, if a voter in this district, introduce yourself as being from the district and state the issue that concerns you.
