We understand the State has granted BRF latitude to pursue options for addressing the problems in Shreveport and Monroe. We respectfully request a meeting as soon as possible to discuss a potential collaboration in greater detail. The importance of keeping and improving graduate medical education in North Louisiana cannot be overstated. Historically, the vast majority of new doctors tend to remain in the geographical area where they were trained. With the shortage of physicians in Louisiana, it is imperative to keep our teaching facilities open and thriving. Similarly, the care provided to the most needy of the State must be preserved. University Health has historically served the Medicaid and indigent population. Preserving and enhancing their access to care is not only required under the Louisiana constitution, but critical to the long term development of growth of our State. While other providers may have historically been unwilling to partner with LSU and the State to support graduate medical education and care for the Medicaid and indigent population, LCMC and FMOLHS chose to support the State’s goals to create successful partnerships in New Orleans and Baton Rouge.

  • Motion to Dismiss Complaint
    PUBLIC UNITED STATES OF AMERICA BEFORE THE FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION 11 27 2017 _______________________________________ 588835 In the Matter of Louisiana Real Estate Appraisers Board, Docket No. 9374 Respondent _______________________________________ MOTION TO DISMISS COMPLAINT Pursuant to Rule 3.22 of the Commission Rules of Practice, Respondent Louisiana Real Estate Appraisers Board (“LREAB” or the “Board”), through undersigned counsel, hereby moves the Commission to dismiss the Part 3 Administrative Complaint, dated May 30, 2017. Oral argument is requested. To summarize the grounds for this Motion set forth in the accompanying Memorandum of Points and Authorities, the Board states as follows: 1. The actions of the Board are State actions that are immune from federal antitrust scrutiny under Cal. Retail Liquor Dealers Assn. v. Midcal Aluminum, Inc., 445 U.S. 97, 105-06 (1980). Louisiana law clearly articulates the intent to displace competition in the market for residential real estate appraisal fees by requiring enforcement of the obligation of Appraisal Management Companies (“AMCs”) to compensate residential appraisers at “customary and reasonable” (“C&R”) rates, and the State of Louisiana actively supervises the Board’s regulatory activities. 2. Under an Executive Order issued by the Governor of the State of Louisiana on July 11, 2017, the Board has repromulgated its C&R fee rule under newly-required active supervision of the Commissioner of Administration—who has authority to approve, reject, or modify the 1 PUBLIC Board-proposed regulation—in addition to supervision by oversight subcommittees of the Louisiana Senate and House Commerce Committees and the Governor. Through this active supervision, the State of Louisiana reaffirmed that the Board’s C&R fee regulation serves Louisiana’s policy of protecting the integrity of residential mortgage appraisals by requiring that AMCs pay customary and reasonable fees for such appraisals.

Pinchback, T.T. Allain, T.B. Stamps, and Henry Demas. TTheir efforts resulted in the establishment of this institution for the education of persons of color in New Orleans. Southern University, chartered by Legislative Act 87 in April 1880, had a 12-member Board of Trustees. The act provided for the establishment of a faculty of “arts and letters” competent in “every branch of liberal education.” The charter sought to open doors of state higher education to all “persons competent and deserving.” Southern opened with 12 students and a $10,000 appropriation. With the passage of the 1890 Morrill Act, the University was reorganized to receive land-grant funds. In 1912, Legislative Act 118 authorized the closing of Southern University in New Orleans, the sale of its property, and the reestablishment of the University on a new site. In 1914, the “new” Southern University opened in Scotlandville, Louisiana, receiving a portion of a $50,000 national land-grant appropriation. Southern University in New Orleans and Southern University in Shreveport were authorized by Legislative Acts 28 and 42 in 1956 and 1964 respectively.

  • The Gubernatorial Elections of 2015: Hard-Fought Races for the Open Seats by Jennifer M
    GOVERNORS The Gubernatorial Elections of 2015: Hard-Fought Races for the Open Seats By Jennifer M. Jensen and Thad Beyle Only three governors were elected in 2015. Kentucky, Louisiana and Mississippi are the only states that hold their gubernatorial elections during the year prior to the presidential election. This means that these three states can be early indicators of any voter unrest that might unleash itself more broadly in the next year’s congressional and presidential elections, and we saw some of this in the two races where candidates were vying for open seats. Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant (R) was elected to a second term, running in a state that strongly favored his political party. Both Kentucky and Louisiana have elected Democrats and Republicans to the governorship in recent years, and each race was seen as up for grabs by many political pundits. In the end, each election resulted in the governorship turning over to the other political party. Though Tea Party sentiments played a signifi- he lost badly to McConnell, he had name recog- cant role in the primary elections in Kentucky and nition when he entered the gubernatorial race as Louisiana, none of the general elections reflected an anti-establishment candidate who ran an out- the vigor that the Tea Party displayed in the 2014 sider’s campaign against two Republicans who had gubernatorial elections.
