Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry

Governor Jeff Landry: ‘Our people have not come first. This will soon change.’

With our inauguration now over, I am left with an overwhelming feeling of hope for the future of our great state. Over the last year, we hit the road, listening to folks about the core issues that must be addressed if we’re to restore our state and improve our circumstances. Although we have a diverse state with many differences, most Louisianans want the same things: a good job, a great education for their children, and they want to live in a safe community.

Why nothing is getting done in Washington!

Poor ole’ Joe Biden. The current president really has his hands full. Some think the world is going to hell in a hand basket, and the Biden team is enmeshed in pouring billions to other countries. The President has just approved a $105 billion military aid package to Israel, as the Israel-Hamas war is on the verge of spiraling into a wider regional conflict. Russia’s war with Ukraine seems more and more like a Russian war with America as the US has poured $80 billion in this struggle. Our Southern border is overflowing with a surge of immigrants with no plan to stop the flow.

Biden’s numbers are critically low among minorities and young people, but are they all going third-party?

In the past few months, we’ve seen unprecedented fracturing of the Democratic Party’s base, with young people and minorities withdrawing their support from President Joe Biden in record numbers across multiple national polls.
With Biden’s approval ratings falling below 40% and economic issues as well as the divisive wars in Ukraine and Israel remaining top issues for voters, this movement appears to only be escalating.
