I’m so excited to award five District 3 schools with funding needed to improve their #EnergyEfficiency technology! This $2.3M investment should save each school between $20-$86k a year on their utility bills each year! As a past teacher, I love to see a win for LA students!

Also, let’s not forget the # lalege Democrats who just happen to be absent after days of voting for Jeff Landry’s plan. You may “walk” on a vote, but we aren’t going to let you walk away from being held accountable. Real leaders rise to the moment.

We can thank Democrats Reps. Brass, Fisher, Travis Johnson, and Miller for helping get Jeff Landry’s plan over the finish line.



At the rate of this cabinet, Go put Bobby over the Department of Education. He’s at least experienced in defunding education

Here's the Louisiana House vote on the bill to extend .4% of the state sales tax rate beyond July and to life several sales tax exemptions. It passed 71-23 with two votes to spare. #lalege #lagov

I’m still searching for these people who said they left Louisiana because of income taxes.

Sign the petition to phase out Louisiana's income tax and make our state more competitive, bringing jobs and families back home where they belong. #lalege #lagov pelicanpolicy.org/its-time-to-en…

This is why the eggs and milk talking points isn’t the full picture. Democracy is not what they want and we have to be honest about it.


It’s seems that Lil Jeff gets mad if someone disagree with him. I applaud Sen. Miguez for at least being principled. I wish some of my fellow Democrats would just stand up for our principles instead of selling out for Pelicans tickets.

Now is not the time for political posturing or worrying about one’s next political office. @BlakeMiguezLA seems to want to run to social media instead of offering his own plan.



This cabinet is a hot ass mess. Nothing more to say


We thank @MattWillard97 & @votelandry for standing up and fighting for the people of Louisiana. It’s clear we have to hold Democrats, who want to side with Jeff over the people, accountable and I’m ready to do all I can to do so. This is unacceptable

The problem with the argument by @LAHouseDems is that 4 Dems (Young, Bryant, Selders and Brass) voted for the measure while only @MattWillard97 and @votelandry voted no #lalege #lagov



I want to give a shout out to Leader @MattWillard97 for leading the charge against this plan. @votelandry @RepJasonHughes @RepKyleGreen @DeeBoydBroker and the other @LAHouseDems who stood tall and fought for the people of Louisiana. We see you and we thank you! 💪🏾


Looking at these #lalege House Democrats who sided with Jeff Landry to give taxes breaks for the rich. I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again: We can never be the majority if we don’t know how to be the minority.


Presidential elections happen every 4 years, but organizing work happens every 👏🏿 single 👏🏿 day. Whatever you are passionate about, I encourage you to find a way to get more involved. The @waterworksnola resource guide can be a good place to start. imaginewaterworks.org/new-orleans-co…


While, I believe in a strong press- This is something we have to reckoned with. You can’t stop disinformation and propaganda with paid information. They are thriving because it’s free and easily accessible.

This post is unavailable.

You see how wrong Lil Jeff was on this? He is saying his tax plan will roar Louisiana ‘s economy? Why should we trust his plan that will tax new services we all use to pay for his rich friends? #lalege

The Turkish proverb explains this moment the best on how so many vote against themselves: The forest was shrinking but the trees kept voting for the axe, for the axe was clever and convinced the trees that because his handle was made of wood he was one of them.”

The problem is the people in media whose job it is to talk about Democrats get all of their perceptions about Democrats from online spaces and elite outlets—a very warped reality. It then feeds into how the party is perceived as too liberal as well as a vicious cycle of pundits…

Kamala and her entire team never used pronouns, she never mentioned her race or gender, never engaged in cancel culture, she highlighted freedom & patriotism, would deflect when asked about race or gender and say "I'm gonna represent all Americans". Stop watching these idiotic…



Any good pet owner gets them groomed. -but this new tax is on school supplies for families, lawn services for seniors, & people who have to use laundromats to clean their clothing. But, I’m impressed you keep this act up like you weren’t trashing the GOP a few years ago.

So you use a pet groomer in your daily life? I’m impressed.



I don’t think you all have an idea about how a Trump presidency is about to change your utility cost and who will pay for them.

11/6 letter from Republican Chair of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, Cathy McMorris Rodgers to FERC Chair Phillips instructing him to stop work on any pending “partisan” or “controversial” matter.

I will tell you what the Speaker won’t: This plan provides for news taxes on the services you use in your daily life to give big corporations and the wealthy a giant tax break. They are adding taxes on you to fund for their rich donors. What happened to NO NEW TAXES? #lalege

Chair Emerson and her committee have extensively researched and studied this tax reform package and are ready to fully consider the bills with experts who believe it can significantly improve the lives of every citizen in Louisiana. (CONT'd 1/2) #lalege



This is what some of y’all have unleashed.

Maybe we should ask why black women are politically so out of step with the rest of the country?
