AGP Executive Report

Last update: 13 minutes ago

U.S. Senate Runoff: Louisiana voters head to the polls Saturday, June 27, in closed party primaries for the Nov. 3 Senate matchup—Republicans choose between Julia Letlow and John Fleming, while Democrats pick Jamie Davis versus Gary Crockett. Bond & Local Funding: State Treasurer Fleming highlighted Louisiana State Bond Commission approvals for Nov. 3 ballot measures, spanning drainage, wastewater, roads/bridges, public safety, and community services across dozens of parishes. Education Fallout: A new national report card flags “significant learning loss,” with 40% of fourth graders lacking basic reading skills and 39% of eighth graders behind in math since COVID-era disruptions. Landry, Data Centers & Ratepayers: Gov. Jeff Landry signed/advanced orders tied to AI data center requirements while also moving to protect utility customers—amid ongoing debate over who pays. Courts & Rights: The Supreme Court issued race- and gun-related rulings that drew sharp barbs from justices, keeping voting and civil-rights fights front and center. Local Life: Baton Rouge-area roller skating is rebounding as a community stress-relief outlet, and a Baton Rouge judge/LSU sports Hall of Fame items continue to draw attention.
