In the Legislature, she will be an advocate for crime and recidivism reduction, simplified tax code, school choice, workforce development, economic development, and unlocking dedicated funds. Louisiana produces some of the cleanest energy in the world. We need to capitalize on this strength to provide jobs and opportunities for our residents while being open to new energy sources of the future.

We are at a pivotal time in Louisiana history and we need to send experienced, committed, and deeply invested legislators to the Capitol to chart our path into the future.
