LillyPAC was established to work to ensure that this vision is also shared by lawmakers, who make policy decisions that impact our company and the patients we serve.

  • 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.

    Advocacy Day Toolkit April 11, 2018 Welcome! Thank you for joining us at the 2018 Justice for Louisiana Women Advocacy Day, where you’ll learn about key issues affecting women across our state, the impacts of proposed legislation, and ways you can influence the legislative process. Today, a variety of organizations and advocates are demanding better outcomes and justice for women in our state by uniting across social justice issues—including economic justice, reproductive justice, criminal justice, environmental justice, affordable healthcare, violence prevention, and more. Throughout the day you will hear from leaders and legislators about key issues and how they affect Louisiana’s women, their children, and their communities. We will also discuss proposed legislation, its potential impacts on Louisiana’s women, and ways you can influence state policies. Our goal is for you to learn more about the legislative process and to have opportunities to speak with your legislators. To that end, we are providing you with this toolkit that you can use to make your voice heard on these issues today and in the future. We hope you will enjoy this opportunity to network with other advocates, will gain deeper insights into how all of these social justice issues affect women across our state, and will take charge of your power to influence state policies. Most of all, we hope that you will leave here today with more knowledge, new skills, and a steadfast determination to stay engaged in the legislative process to demand justice for all of Louisiana’s
