AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Louisiana Politics: Voters rejected Gov. Jeff Landry’s teacher-pay plan and all four other constitutional amendments on Saturday, dimming lawmakers’ chances of finding money for raises after Amendment 3 failed. Voting Rights & Courts: The U.S. Supreme Court avoided a major next step in Voting Rights Act enforcement, sending Mississippi and North Dakota map fights back to lower courts after its Louisiana ruling weakened protections for minority districts. Redistricting Fight: Louisiana’s GOP-backed congressional map cleared the state Senate 27-10, aiming to eliminate a majority-Black district and give Republicans a 5-1 edge—now headed to the House. Cybersecurity: Sens. Tommy Tuberville and Bill Cassidy demanded answers from Instructure after a Canvas breach exposed data tied to about 275 million students, teachers, and families. Health & Safety: A Mississippi man sued Ochsner Medical Center and three emergency physicians over an alleged kidney-stone misdiagnosis. Sports: The Pelicans hired Jamahl Mosley as head coach, and the NBA conference finals tip off Monday with Spurs-Thunder.
