During the 2019 Regular Louisiana Legislative Session AG Jeff Landry partnered with legislators from both sides of the aisle to pass legislation that is being called the fix to Obamacare. The Health Care Coverage for Louisiana Families Protection Act opens up a wide range of options for healthcare and provides coverage for those with pre-existing conditions.
AG Landry's legislation is now being recognized nationally and he is leading the way in providing Congress with real solutions to our healthcare woes. He recently sat down with Brietbart to discuss this legislative win and explain how it could be a model for the entire country!
Thank you AG Landry for being a leader on healthcare and finding ways to solve the Obamacare disaster!

In what is another example of Attorney General Jeff Landry showing true leadership in Baton Rouge, a bill working it’s way through the legislature, which would replace Obamacare, is receiving bipartisan support
State Attorney General Jeff Landry, a former Republican congressman, has spearheaded the effort, saying it would inject real competition into the health insurance market, reduce costs for consumers and provide a safety net for those whose pre-existing conditions, such as cancer and diabetes.
“What we’re doing is going back to federalist principles, working within the long-established powers of the state,” Mr. Landry said. “It will be interesting to see what the governor will do.”
The ball is in the Governor’s court. Let’s see if he truly is worthy of that “Honor Code” label he loves to use

Why is it that only conservative news outlets are pointing out the relationship between several prominent Democrat congressmen and Louis Farrakhan? If any Republican was caught being in the same room with the likes of David Duke, who spouts similar crap as Farrakhan, this would be plastered over every means of media in America.

AG Landry Supports Ending Obama Illegal Immigration Program
Louisiana Citizens for Job Creators commends Attorney General Jeff Landry for his continued strong support for President Donald Trump's decision to end President Obama’s DACA illegal immigration program. Despite not having Congressional authorization, the program allows for hundreds of thousands of undocumented illegal immigrants to remain in the country. AG Landry’s support for ending the Obama era program will mean hundreds of thousands of jobs for Americans.
“This executive amnesty was another example of the Obama Administration bypassing Congress to advance its radical agenda." Landry continued, “As I have often said, the Executive Branch cannot simply sidestep the people’s elected representatives in the Legislative Branch. I am glad President Trump is defending the separation of powers, preserving the rule of law, and ending the unconstitutional DACA program.”
We commend AG Landry for his early leadership and opposition to the DACA program.On June 29, AG Landry led 10 other state attorney generals and sent a letter to President Trump calling for him to begin phasing out the program no later than September 5th.
Why Not Acadiana John Bel?
For the morally outraged in our area who couldn't vote for David Vitter and are now being overlooked by Edwards for the rest of the state. Don't blame me. #IVotedForVitter

Louisiana Family Forum Urges Citizens to Petition Governor and Attorney General Regarding Restroom Issue
Photo source: Protect Louisiana Children
As per the email sent out to their supporters this afternoon, the Louisiana Family Forum urges citizens to take part in a petition to Gov. Edwards and AG Landry over the Obama administration's decision to implement radical changes regarding gender issues within the state of Louisiana:
If you thought the Obama administration would gently ride off into the sunset, think again.
The Departments of Justice and Education are once again exceeding their lawful authority by sending a letter to every public school district in America threatening loss of federal aid if local districts do not adopt genderless bathroom policies, which would allow self-identified transgendered students to use facilities such as restrooms, showers, and locker rooms of the opposite biological sex. Under the farce of "protecting students from discrimination," these federal bullies have painted a bulls-eye on little girls and boys.
If Louisiana does not speak up now, there's no limit to what the President will do next. Please join LFF in signing the petition below urging Governor Edwards and Attorney General Jeff Landry to protect the safety of Louisiana children. 11,000 have signed the petition so far. Let your voice be heard today! SIGN NOW and forward to your friends!
Vitter: Obama Blowout Preventer Rule Kicks Oil & Gas While It’s Down
Vitter has legislation to protect small businesses from new overreaching rule
(Washington, D.C.) – Today, U.S. Senator David Vitter (R-La.) issued the following statement upon the U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI) issuing its final well-control rule on offshore oil and gas drilling. As Chairman of the Senate Small Business and Entrepreneurship Committee, Vitter has introduced an amendment to the Energy Policy Modernization Act that would protect small businesses from the economic severity of DOI’s well control rule.
“As we approach the sixth anniversary of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill that took the lives of 11 men in the Gulf of Mexico and devastated our coasts, my top priority continues to be ensuring this kind of human tragedy and subsequent economic losses never happens again. Maintaining high safety standards always takes precedence, but that is not the question here,” said Vitter. “What the Obama Administration’s ongoing anti-energy and anti-jobs crusade fails to acknowledge is that Louisiana’s energy industry supports families, small businesses, and our ongoing coastal restoration efforts. The Department of Interior’s well-control rule is bad news for Louisiana, and certainly has the potential to kick our oil and gas industry while it’s down.”
In September 2015, Vitter testified before the House Natural Resources Committee on the impacts of federal policies on energy production and economic growth in the Gulf of Mexico. Click here to read more.
Following the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in 2010, President Obama imposed a drilling moratorium in the Gulf, which substantially damaged Louisiana’s energy industry and economy. During that time, Vitter successfully blocked the nomination of Interior Department nominee Dan Ashe until the Department issued fifteen deepwater exploration well permits and responded to his previous requests for answers on the permitting process. Vitter also successfully blocked a nearly $20,000 pay raise for Interior Secretary Ken Salazar until Interior resumed issuing new permits at the same rate as before the Deepwater Horizon oil spill.
Vitter was an original co-sponsor of the RESTORE Act, which dedicates at least 80 percent of the Clean Water Act (CWA) penalties paid by BP and other responsible parties to the Gulf States to restore coastal ecosystems and economies damaged by the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. Vitter shepherded the legislation through the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works, where it passed unanimously in November 2011 and through the Senate in March 2012. As a leading Republican conferee on the Highway Bill and the only member from the Louisiana delegation involved in the negotiations, Vitter continued to make the enactment of the RESTORE Act a top priority by insisting that the language be included in the final version of the bill.
Louisiana dedicates 100 percent of the revenue from offshore oil and gas development to coastal restoration, which is Louisiana’s highest environmental priority. In 2006 Vitter helped pass the Gulf of Mexico Energy Security Act (GOMESA), which established revenue sharing of 37.5 percent that Gulf States - Louisiana, Texas, Mississippi, Alabama - could collect from offshore oil and gas production. Vitter is continuing the fight to expand the number of states receiving OCS revenue sharing and, starting in 2027, raise the amount of money each state could get per year from $500 million to $1 billion
VITTER: No Hearings For Any Obama SCOTUS Nominees
Earlier this week, Vitter joined other Republicans on the Committee in sending a letter to Majority Leader Mitch McConnell indicating that they will exercise their constitutional authority to withhold consent of a Supreme Court nomination and will not hold hearings on a Supreme Court nominee until the next President is sworn in.
Charles Boustanty Calls Out Caroline Fayard Over Obama's Gitmo Comments
During another one of his almost daily legacy making speeches as of late, President Obama has decided to push his agenda of moving Guantanamo Bay prisoners to the US, effectively pandering to the left on his quest to close this facility.
In what is shaping up to be an epic battle for the seat in the US Senate being vacated by Sen. David Vitter, Charles Boustany issued the following today:
Campaign Manager Michael Hare: “If Caroline Fayard won’t stand up to protect Louisiana families now, how will she stand up for them in the United States Senate? President Obama is hell-bent on bringing hardened terrorists to our backyard, but Caroline Fayard hasn’t said a word about it. Dr. Boustany will continue to stand up to protect Louisiana families from President Obama’s dangerous terrorist resettlement plan. He won’t let President Obama put families at risk just to allow the President to fulfill an eight-year-old campaign promise.”
Boustany had the following to say today during a radio interview on Baton Rouge 107.3:
“If the President tries to close Guantanamo Bay, he will be in direct violation of the law. I won’t stand for that. Congress makes law, not the President, and we will not allow him to put American families at risk.”
Let's see if this latest shot over the bow provokes a response from the Democratic candidate Fayard.
Obama Signs Into Law H.R. 644, the Trade Facilitation and Trade Enforcement Act
Enrollment ceremony for the bill to officially send it to the President for signature
President Barack Obama has signed into law H.R. 644, which will accomplish the following:
- Create a dedicated unit within U.S. Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) to prevent and investigate trade evasion
- Create a CBP point of contact for private sector trade evasion allegations with the authority to direct evasion investigations and the duty to inform interested parties about the status of investigations
- Require CBP and Commerce to establish procedures to ensure maximum cooperation and communication in order to quickly, efficiently, and accurately investigate allegations of trade evasion
- Direct CBP to enter into agreements with foreign countries to enable proactive investigation overseas
- Require CBP to annually report to Congress on all of the agency’s activities to combat trade evasion
The bill also contains the PROTECT Act safeguarding Louisiana seafood from illegally dumped foreign product. The Act was shepherded through the Congress by Congressman Charles Boustany, LA-03.
The following was said regarding passage of this bill:
Boustany: “It’s simple – if foreign competitors want to sell in our markets, they need to play by our rules. The PROTECT Act provides necessary safeguards to ensure no foreign entity can undercut American businesses and jobs in our own backyard. This is a monumental win for Louisiana. I’ll keep fighting to ensure our trade laws are fair and work to support American commerce.”
John Williams, Executive Director of the Southern Shrimp Alliance: “Simply stated, this would not have happened without the intensive and persistent efforts of Congressman Boustany. While the Congressman has been an effective champion of the US shrimp industry for many years, the enactment of this legislation may be the most far reaching and beneficial of all. Every year illegal shrimp imports defraud the federal government and American taxpayers of tens of millions of dollars in unpaid duties. They have also seriously injured our shrimp fishermen and the economies of coastal communities in Louisiana and throughout the Gulf and South Atlantic. This legislation will substantially strengthen the ability of US Customs and Border Protection and other federal agencies to investigate, prosecute, and end these harmful fraudulent activities.”
Caroline "I Hate Republicans" Fayard Joins Crowded Senate Field
Failed Lt. Governor's candidate and ethically challenged Democrat, Caroline Fayard, has ventured into the Senate race to replace retiring Sen. David Vitter. You might remember her from a few of the following Fayard Facts:
Caroline Fayard Facts
Fayard Supports Barack Obama.
Fayard Praised Obama For Standing Up To Republicans And Predicted His Re-Election: Fayard: "Our president started to stand up to them. He will win re-election as a result. (Republicans) know it. We know it." (“Candidate or not?” Washington Parish Daily News, 3/27/11)
In October 2010 Fayard Gave Obama A B+ Grade. "Republicans are slamming the Democratic candidate for lieutenant governor because she gave positive marks to President Obama in a recent candidate forum. Caroline Fayard, a New Orleans lawyer making her first bid for an elected office, said she would give Obama a "B+" for his performance so far.” (Melinda Deslatte, “Republicans rally their faithful in BR,” Associated Press, 10/26/10)
Also In October 2010 Fayard Called Obamacare "A Net Positive For Louisiana":“HOST: President Barack Obama’s healthcare plan, is it good or bad for Louisiana? MODERATOR: Starting with Caroline. FAYARD: I think it’s a net positive for Louisiana. (League of Women Voters Candidate Forum, 10/22/10)
Caroline Fayard's Website "geauxcaroline.com" Featured A Photo Of Her Standing Beside Barack Obama.
FACT: Caroline Fayard Hates Republicans
Fayard: “I hate Republicans. I hate Republicans,” [Caroline] Fayard said … “They are cruel and destructive. They eat their young. They don’t think. They don’t allow people to think. They are bullies.” (“Candidate or not?” Washington Parish Daily News, 3/27/11
Additionally, Fayard has skirted the rules regarding campaign contributions. Per the LAGOP email blast sent out yesterday, the following was provided:
Fayard's parents wrote a huge check to the Louisiana Democrat Party when she ran for office, and the Democrats spent a similar amount on their daughter's campaign, allegedly sidestepping the $5,000 contribution limit imposed by Louisiana law.
Obama Is Trying to Stick It to the Oil and Gas Industry Yet Again
Photo source: News with Attitude
If there is any more proof needed to see that the President is one of the most anti-oil and gas Presidents, you will find it here. Our Dear Leader has decided that he will support a $10 per barrel tax on oil in order to support his "clean energy projects." Clean energy projects, you know, like the wonderful boondoggle that was Solyndra.
Congressman Charles Boustany issued the following response yesterday regarding this decision:
This President has relentlessly attacked the American oil & gas industry and the working families who depend on these jobs. Today, oil prices are at their lowest point in over a decade, and the workforce is hurting. But the President is proposing a tax hike that will be passed on at the pump to these same families who are trying to make ends meet.
“This is another absurd attack on American energy, and it has to stop. I will personally see to it this new tax never sees the light of day.”
Taxpayers that depend on the oil and gas industry to feed and support their families should be very concerned with policies such as these, which are almost certain to continue with another liberal Democrat being elected to the highest office.

Will Barack Obama Finally Admit That Cali Shooting is a Terrorist Attack?
Photo source: NBC News
CNN is reporting this morning that the wife and co-conspirator in the shooting that took place earlier this week had sworn allegiance to ISIS. Obama and his talking heads in the White House have steadfastly held to the notion that this incident was "workplace violence" or anything other than what most of America has seen it for, which is radical Islamic jihad.
And, on the heels of this shooting, the "President" has named an Hamas sympathizer as the new ISIS czar.
What else will it take for America to see we have an Islamic sympathizer as President who has no intention to protect us against ISIS and would rather focus on gun rights being diminished and calling climate change the greatest risk to this country? May God watch over us, because Obama sure in the hell won't.
Obama Puts Rhetoric Over Reason in Denying Keystone Pipeline
Photo source: joemiller.us
It should come as no surprise to anyone, President Obama has decided in all of his wisdom to kill the Keystone XL pipeline that was touted to bring thousands of jobs and injecting billions of dollars into the economy. Apart from a change in administration in the next election and a Republican President and Congress, this project is fundamentally dead.
Reactions from the House of Representatives and Louisiana legislators came swiftly. Congressman Charles Boustany issued the following by email shortly after the decision was announced this morning:
“The President’s rejection of the Keystone XL pipeline goes against years of studies showing little environmental impact but significant economic impact. I’m disappointed the President is putting a radical environmental agenda over our country’s jobs agenda when we need more jobs & energy integration with our allies. This is a tragic missed opportunity for our country.”
House Majority Whip Steve Scalise released the following statement in reaction to the decision:
“With his rejection of the Keystone XL pipeline, President Obama is continuing his war on American energy, choosing the demands of a small group of radical environmental extremists over the strong majority of the American people and the more than 40,000 jobs this bipartisan project would have created,” Rep. Scalise said. “The American people deserve better than this from their President. We will not give up and the House will continue to fight for the priorities of hard-working taxpayers who know the Keystone XL pipeline is right for America's economy and for our energy security.”
Anything that this President can do to hurt the oil and gas industry, he's determined to do just that. This is just more evidence.
Letter from Congress to Obama on Iran Deal
Photo source: BB4SP
Several members of the House of Representatives sent President Obama the below letter yesterday indicating their request for side agreements between the administration and the Iranian government in regards to the nuclear deal that was pushed through by Obama. The text of the letter is below and the full letter with the signatories can be found at the below link.
Mr. President:
It has come to our attention that during the recent negotiation of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) with Iran, at least two side deals were made between the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and Iran. These side deals, concerning the “roadmap for the clarification of past and present outstanding issues regarding Iran’s nuclear programs,” have not been made available to the United States Congress. One deal covers the Parchin military complex and the other covers prior military dimensions (PMDs) of Iran's nuclear program.
This is no small matter. As you yourself have made clear, the agreement is “not based on trust, but on verification.” The issue of how we will verify that Iran is being truthful about its activities at potential nuclear sites will determine whether the JCPOA can ultimately succeed.
Under the clear language of the Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act, which you signed into law, members of Congress are entitled to the text of these two side deals. Specifically, members have a right to all “annexes, appendices, codicils, side agreements, implementing materials, documents, and guidance, technical or other understandings and any related agreements, whether entered into or implemented prior to the agreement or to be entered into or implemented in the future.” Congress’s legal right to these documents creates a corresponding legal obligation for your administration to provide them for our review.
The JCPOA with Iran is a matter of immense importance to the immediate and long-term security of the United States. Members of Congress have the right and the duty to review every relevant document, every term, and every word of this agreement in order to make an informed decision about whether or not it merits our support.
We request that you provide the text of these side deals to Congress as expeditiously as possible. If you do not possess these documents, we request that you immediately secure them from the IAEA and then provide them to Congress. We look forward to your quick reply.
The full letter with signatories: Iran Nuke Deal Secret Agreements
