Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry on Monday issued a call for a special session focused on tax reform.
“This special session fulfills the promise we made to the people of Louisiana to rebuild our economy and make Louisiana a place where people want to raise a family and create jobs,” said Governor Jeff Landry in a statement released through his office. “Throughout this special session, we have the opportunity to give teachers a permeant pay raise, put more money in every worker’s pocket, eliminate the tax on prescription drugs, and provide much needed tax relief for seniors. I am eager to enact this new playbook and finally make Louisiana a beacon of hope—inviting families and businesses back home. It’s time we move Louisiana Forward.”
The special session is scheduled to begin on November 6, ending no later than 6:00 pm on November 25.
