I do understand what the amendment was, and i agree that paying off debt is good but the devil is in the details and in this case you are eliminating protected, guaranteed funding in favor of promises. What happens if the savings predicted fall short, which analysts admit is a possibility? The amendment didn't condition the raises based on actual savings, it constitutionally guaranteed them regardless of outcome. Just because lawmakers give written guarantees they'll fund any shortfalls doesn't mean they actually will, or that next administrations will either. It just didnt seem like a good bet to me.

Its really not, maybe a little hyperbolic, I'll admit to that.

People in the City of Denham Springs passed a tax to fund this.

And all the athletic expansion at the other parish schools? The point of this was to point out that the system prioritized athletics over everything else first.

Admins at schools are not making 6 figures. Check their pay schedule for confirmation if you don't believe me.

Maybe not all of them, but the majority are, that is a factual.

They have over 2,000 teachers and support staff. I understand the central office needs people in their maintenance and IT program to ensure continuity of basic business services.

There's a lot of overpaid bloat in the central office. Maintenance and support are fine but there's only about 15 people in IT and about 30 people in Maintenance.

Fleming’s Immigration Record Undercuts Trump’s America First Agenda

President Donald Trump didn’t just talk about border security. He made it the defining issue of modern American politics.


Secure the border. Build the wall. Enforce the law. Put American workers first.


That became the standard Republican voters now expect from anyone asking for their support.


That’s why a new ad in Louisiana’s U.S. Senate race is getting so much attention. The ad highlights past comments from State Treasurer John Fleming, including a line that is already raising eyebrows: “We don’t have enough illegal aliens… why not bus them across the border?” In a Republican primary, that’s not just a bad line. It’s a serious red flag.

But the bigger issue isn’t just what was said. It’s what was done.


When you look at Fleming’s record in Congress, a clear pattern emerges.


Time and again, he supported policies that expanded immigration or increased the amount of foreign labor brought into the U.S.. In 2011, he backed legislation that removed per-country caps on employment-based green cards, a change that would speed up the flow of foreign workers into the United States. In 2012, he voted twice for the STEM Jobs Act, which created 55,000 green cards for foreign workers in technical fields.


At a time when many Americans were struggling in the aftermath of the recession, John Fleming voted to give high-paying, skilled jobs to foreigners.


Expanding high-skilled immigration may sound technical in Washington, but in practice it increases competition for jobs, wages, and opportunities — especially in fields that are supposed to be pathways to upward mobility for American workers.


Then in 2015, Fleming voted to fund Obama's Department of Homeland Security without provisions to block the Democrats' amnesty policies. That decision effectively allowed those policies to continue without using Congress’s most powerful leverage point — the power of the purse — to stop them.


These are not isolated votes or one-off decisions. They form a consistent record. A record of supporting increased immigration flows and declining to take hard-line positions when it mattered most in Washington.


That stands in direct contrast to the approach President Trump brought to the issue. Trump didn’t hedge or recalibrate based on political convenience. He made it clear that immigration policy should serve American workers first, not global labor markets. That clarity is why the issue still resonates so strongly with Republican voters today.


And it’s why Fleming’s record matters now more than ever.


Because this race is not about who can say the right thing in a campaign ad. It’s about who actually stood for those principles when they had the chance. When voters see a candidate who supported expanding green cards, declined to use federal funding to challenge executive amnesty, and is now trying to position himself as a border hawk, it raises a fundamental question about consistency.


Louisiana voters are not confused about what they want on immigration. They want strong borders, enforced laws, and a system that prioritizes American workers. They are not looking for candidates who are trying to explain away past votes or reinterpret their record to match the current political moment.


They are looking for conviction. They are looking for clarity. And they are looking for leadership that has been consistent all along.


At the end of the day, this issue is not complicated.


You either fought for policies that put American workers first, or you didn’t.


And in this race, the record speaks for itself.

In all of that thinly veiled political ad, there's a lot about his stances on legal immigration policies, but where is the info about Fleming voting against border walls?
Hint: it isnt there because Fleming was never in a position to vote on the issue one way or another. He was in office until the beginning of 2017, he was leaving office as Trump was coming in. You believed a lie. The Letlow camp just threw out absolute made up BS because they know she has nothing substantive about herself to run .
