@PelicanInst CEO. I'm at my very most winsome when I'm in formalwear. Opinions are my own. But let's be honest - I'd prefer they were yours, too.

Treasurer Fleming, Sir, I have thus far refrained from influencing the Louisiana U. S. Senate debate, because my longstanding policy has been to preserve a clear field for my fellow citizens, and encourage We the People to calmly assess the dynamics of every civic decision.
However… your representations, good Sir, for over a year, have been conducted in a particularly unseemly, ungentlemanly manner, and your current posture, of posting and supporting the obscenely disrespectful AI video of my colleague and friend Julia Letlow, mocking the tragic death of her beloved Husband, is beyond the pale of any Louisiana Gentleman.
I am compelled to insist, Mr. Treasurer, that you remove the post, divorce yourself from those who created the appalling video, and apologize to Ms. Letlow and her children.
Until Wednesday, at 1500 hours, I shall humbly await your decision. In that hour, I will either acknowledge your acquiescence, or I will step into the arena in chivalrous support of Ms. Letlow and her children, respectful of her deceased Husband Luke, whom I held dear.
I deliver this message publicly, because you have refused my private counsel. You’ve been led astray John. I’m advising you to set things right.

Every child learns differently, and every family should have access to quality educational options. Representative Emily Chenevert has consistently championed school choice and the right of private schools to provide diverse learning opportunities free from government mandates and overreach for Louisiana students. Expanding educational freedom gives parents more control and encourages innovation throughout the education system.
Thank you @emilymchenevert !

Economic growth depends on healthy consumers and healthy businesses. But with energy, insurance, and everyday costs continuing to rise, both are under increasing pressure.

Transparency should be the default, not the exception. Although HB 615 fell short this session, Speaker Pro Tempore Mike Johnson advanced an important conversation about public access to government by proposing live-streaming and online archives for state boards and commissions that adopt regulations, impose fees, and make decisions affecting everyday life. Open government remains a goal worth pursuing in future sessions.

Louisiana's future depends on attracting investment, not driving it away. After years of coastal litigation that has failed to produce restoration funding but has created significant legal uncertainty, the Supreme Court's unanimous decision presents an opportunity for policymakers to chart a new course. A strong economy and a healthy coast require clear regulations, accountability, and a business climate that encourages long-term investment.

This would be a disaster for energy security at a moment when the world increasingly depends on US energy dominance.
SCOTUS should make clear that national energy policy belongs in DC, not local courtrooms.

Parents have control now. You don’t need a law for that.

Screen time is a problem. So is the fact that Big Tech profits from exposing children to addictive content online.
My App Store Accountability Act holds Big Tech accountable and puts parents back in control of what their kids are exposed to online.
