INTRODUCTION LOUISIANA POLITICS 2016-2020 Budget woes, conservative majorities and shifting trends. The final year of the 2012-2016 term proved to be just as influential, if not more so, than all of the others that preceded it. With former Gov. Bobby Jindal making his final exit, the Legislature partly overcame a $1.6 billion shortfall and increased spending by passing higher taxes, lowering tax credits, and implementing a variety of short-term budget fixes. A portion of the business utility tax exemption was suspended, a selection of business income tax exemptions were reduced, a cap on the film tax credit was established, and new tax filing standards were created to bring revenue in immediately. Most of these changes were temporary and much of what was debated, from tax alterations to funding formulas, will once again be on the table for 2016. Universities, K-12 schools, health care organizations, and local governments were in line to receive as much money as the previous year, but an $870 million shortfall midway through the 2015-2016 fiscal year put everything in doubt. Moreover, a more than $2 billion gap for the 2016-2017 fiscal year cast major shadows over this new term. Gov. John Bel Edwards took some very unique steps in initially approaching the shortfalls. He created a public Website to take sugges- tions from citizens and asked major network affiliates around the state to carry a live speech from his office just days before his special session convened.

  • 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.
