  • Weekly Legislative Digest
    Louisiana Federation of Teachers Weekly Legislative Digest May 1, 2015 Steve Monaghan, President * Les Landon, Editor 2015 Regular Legislative Session Now available on the Web at http://la.aft.org Panel votes to silence public employees Despite the best arguments of teachers, firefighters, police officers and other public servants, the House Labor and Industrial Relations Committee approved a bill that will make it inconvenient for employees to join and maintain membership in the union or association of their choice. The purpose of HB 418 by Rep. Stuart Bishop (R-Lafayette) is to weaken unions like the Louisiana Federation of Teachers and Louisiana Association of Educators. These are the groups that have raised questions about, and led the opposition to, so-called “reforms” backed by big business that all too often result in the privatization of education and diminution of the teaching profession. HB 418 would revoke the right of public employees to pay their union or association dues through payroll deduction. Since local governments currently have the authority to grant payroll deduction, the bill is seen by school boards and others as legislative meddling in their prerogatives. The bill is the brainchild of the Louisiana Association of Business and Industry, which has been twisting the arms of lawmakers to force its passage. The big business lobby recruited the Koch brothers backed Americans for Prosperity to publicly promote the bill. It is an example of what columnist Stephanie Grace, in another context, called “an ugly yet ascendant strain in American politics, a willingness to use any means necessary, no matter what chaos ensues or who gets hurt.” The vitriol motivating the bill’s supporters was on full display when an amendment was proposed to exempt the teacher unions from its prohibitions.

THE 2016 LEGISLATURE: BOOMSDAY The Governor's FY 16-17 budget is due to be released next Tuesday, April 12. When the numbers are available, we will know how the boom will be lowered concerning the DA line- item. Remember, this budget will be a worst-case scenario and will assume no additional revenues prior to July 1. The Louisiana Indigent Defender Board would be reorganized under a compromise version of HB 818. The Criminal Justice Committee approved a substitute bill, which will get a new number on the House floor. It reduces the number of Board members from 15 to 11; removes the four law professors; gives local PDs more input; and mandates that 65% of the appropriated funds be spent on local PDs. Look for LACDL and the boutique law firm, anti- death penalty gang to try to kill this in the Senate. Changing the Age of Juvenile Jurisdiction to include 17-year-olds is a major piece in the Governor's legislative agenda.
