The 2026 Session of the Louisiana Legislature is done and adjourned Sine Die on June 1!  For most participants from legislators to regulators to lobbyists, Sine Die comes with a big *SIGH*!  Click here to view the full LAFP tracking list.

A couple of things to reflect upon:

Our continued push for physician involvement cannot stop! Our staff has been screaming this from the rooftops for several years now. We need to hear them. We were witnesses to what they have been telling us. We can’t continue to rely solely on them to deliver our message. While we sincerely thank the Legislative and Advocacy Committee and members who are involved and do take action, your patients need more of us to step up!

Your personal stories and answers are impactful. Those physicians who took the time to testify at the Capitol made a difference! Our appreciation for your time and expertise is huge.

We need you to commit to membership and support. Please make sure you are up to date on your membership – to include verifying we have accurate information enabling us to communicate with you. Please contribute to our PAC. Please recruit your peers to the fold. Please ask for staff to share knowledge by hosting a meeting of your peers and allowing them to give you a legislative update. Please pay attention to what you’re hearing locally and share that information with us.
