NOLA City Business- LA Senate Budget Proposal
No way on earth should a state with 4 million people have a budget of 37 billion. Time to open up the books and have a constitutional convention.

Is this before or after the federal government throws about $3.2 Billion at Louisiana?
I agree though. It seems like it was around $22-$26 billion not too long ago.

$9250.00 per person. Unreal!
What percent of our population is below the poverty line? What percentage of our population is on medic-aid, welfare, food stamps, etc?

$37 billion budget and we can't fix the fricking potholes in my street. And half the kids in EBR Public Schools probably can't even read.

This was last years. On page 13 is the breakdown. Almost half of the budget is coming from the Feds.
Page 3 tells it all. Almost 18 BILLION coming from the Feds for "highways, education, healthcare, social services and disaster recovery". Things that LA ranks either dead last or pretty close to it.
Someone's pockets are getting lined up real good.

They come with so many strings attached that our highways, education, healthcare, social services, and disaster recovery will still be a train wreck.
Our disaster recovery needs a disaster recovery.

Won’t this have to be approved by the Republican held senate and house?
Posted on 5/25/21 at 10:53 am to crewdepoo
You act like our republicans weren’t democrats 20 years ago. We have the worst politicians, socially conservative/fiscally liberal
Posted on 5/25/21 at 10:55 am to back9Tiger
37 billion for what ? This is like spending $100,000 for a used 2001 Civic.
Posted on 5/25/21 at 10:55 am to crewdepoo
Dude, this is in Bodi White's shop. The Republicans played a BIG part in putting this together.
