Summary: The House met with a quorum and began with prayer, the pledge, and routine journal and leave actions. Members then used personal privilege remarks to recognize several Capitol Day events and visiting groups, including St. Bernard Parish Day, Gulf States Renewable Energy Industries Association Day, local ARPEC members, a retirement tribute to Barney Arsenault, Deaf History Month, Asthma and Allergy Awareness Month, Young Farmers and Ranchers, housing advocates, and Louisiana Hospital Day. The chamber also received Senate messages on concurred resolutions, adopted Senate resolutions, and newly passed Senate bills, along with committee and Legislative Bureau reports on various House and Senate measures. The House then considered and passed a series of bills. Among those approved were measures requiring documentation for inmates upon release (HB 167), allowing court filings on letter-sized paper (HB 227), clarifying recusal procedures for district attorneys (HB 243), strengthening safe harbor protections for trafficking victims (HB 321), adding citizenship verification oversight for public benefits (HB 335), capping state travel meal reimbursements to GSA rates for the judiciary (HB 398), establishing a Governor’s Task Force on Impaired Driving (HB 492), updating school emergency operation plans (HB 624), improving coordination of public assistance benefits when children enter or leave foster care (HB 689, later amended and passed), expanding justice of the peace jurisdiction in East Baton Rouge Parish (HB 708), revising election petition and unaffiliated voter rules (HB 906), regulating electronic monitoring device removal (HB 968), renaming and expanding the crime victims’ compensation fund (HB 969), raising the indigent defender contribution threshold for small municipalities (HB 978), requiring QR codes on sex offender licenses (HB 985), reorganizing the state public defender system (HB 1005), extending an alcohol permit moratorium (HB 1029), allowing microbreweries to sell at special events (HB 1077), adding alternative backup power options for nursing facilities (HB 1095), creating a misdemeanor for relay-attack vehicle theft devices (HB 1104), revising capital case procedures for defendants with intellectual disabilities (HB 1107, amended), allowing Citizens Property Insurance to direct certain emergency assessment funds to the Fortify Homes Program (HB 1187), updating medical board membership and vacancy procedures (HB 1220), and several others. Some bills were returned to the calendar or held over, including HB 804, HB 926, HB 955, HB 1069, HB 1203, and HB 1217. The chamber also revisited a previously failed airport surveillance bill, HB 730, and used a successful motion to suspend the rules to reconsider it, as well as a motion to reconsider HB 225 after it had failed twice. The Speaker explained the two-thirds threshold for suspending the rules, and after debate on procedure, the House adopted the motion to suspend the rules and then the motion to reconsider, setting HB 225 up for further action the following Tuesday. Throughout the session, many bills were adopted with little or no opposition, while a few drew questions about scope, costs, or policy effects before passing by recorded vote.

Summary: The House met with 89 members present and began with prayer, the pledge, and routine journal and leave requests. The early part of the session was largely ceremonial, with multiple personal privilege remarks recognizing visiting groups and special days at the Capitol, including St. Bernard Parish Day, Gulf States Renewable Energy Industries Association Day, ARPEC members, retired public servant Barney Arsenault, Deaf History Month, Asthma and Allergy Awareness Month, Young Farmers and Ranchers, Louisiana Housing Corporation participants, and Louisiana Hospital Day. The chamber also received Senate messages, including concurrence in several House concurrent resolutions, Senate passage of a number of bills, and a list of Senate resolutions lying over. The House then moved through a long series of resolutions and bills, many of them adopted without objection. Among the measures approved were resolutions designating or commending various observances and groups, and bills addressing inmate documentation upon release, court filings on letter-sized paper, safe harbor protections for trafficking victims, public benefits verification, travel meal reimbursement limits for state employees, the Governor’s Task Force on Impaired Driving, school emergency operation plans, justice of the peace jurisdiction in East Baton Rouge Parish, unaffiliated voter participation in party primaries, electronic monitoring rules, crime victims’ compensation terminology, the indigent defender fund threshold for small municipalities, sex offender identification procedures, the Office of State Public Defender, microbrewery special-event permits, alternative power sources for nursing facilities, relay attack device penalties, and a capital-case intellectual disability bill. Several of these passed overwhelmingly; some were temporarily returned to the calendar or tabled after passage. A few bills drew more discussion. HB 335 on citizenship verification for public benefits passed 77-17. HB 398, limiting meal reimbursements for state travel to GSA rates with an exception process, passed 62-32 after questions about scope and lodging. HB 906 on presidential preference primary qualification and party rules for unaffiliated voters passed 68-19. HB 897, protecting health data collected by pregnancy centers and imposing fines for unauthorized disclosure, passed 94-0 after an amendment and questions about its application. HB 1107 on intellectual disabilities in capital cases passed 75-11 after amendments informed by disability advocates. HB 1187, allowing Citizens Property Insurance to direct certain emergency assessment overages to the Fortify Homes Program or reserves, passed 87-9. HB 1220 on the State Board of Medical Examiners passed 95-0. The House also reconsidered and successfully revived HB 225 after suspending the rules, and several bills were returned to the calendar for later consideration, including HB 689 before it was later brought back and passed 84-7 after amendment. The session concluded with notice of additional Senate messages and upcoming floor scheduling.

WAM Public Hearing 02-19-2026

Ways and Means

Summary: The Committee on Ways and Means met for decision-making only and adopted recommendations on a long list of Senate bills, with no oral testimony taken. Early actions included SB 99 to pass unamended, SB 585 to pass with a date correction to 2015, SB 2060 to pass with amendments involving public project lists, legislative approval for fund transfers, and removal of certain appropriations, and SB 2069 to pass with amendments extending a sunset date and requiring transit-oriented development zoning. The committee also advanced several other measures, including SB 2110, SB 215, SB 2259, SB 2382, SB 2442, and SB 2485 unamended, while SB 2152, SB 2315, SB 2446, SB 2919, SB 2577, SB 2580, and SB 2861 were moved with various amendments, mostly date changes, appropriation blanks, or technical clarifications. A substantial portion of the meeting focused on SB 2211, where Department of Human Services officials explained how the department was covering costs by using restricted funds and shifting Med-QUEST funding, and noted a need for $14 million plus support for $16.5 million in ACA enhanced tax credit subsidies. The chair indicated the bill would move forward with amendments, including blanking the appropriation pending more information on lapses, and the recommendation was adopted. SB 2544 was also amended to remove a specific appropriation and replace it with a blank cap on funds from DUR, and SB 2342 was amended to require projects to be in transit-oriented development zones and to reflect prior committee concurrence. The most extended debate was on SB 3326, which would address utility restructuring. One senator opposed the bill, arguing it could raise rates, worsen reliability issues, and disrupt an existing utility without a clear plan, especially given island-specific conditions. Supporters argued the bill would separate generation from transmission and distribution, create competition, protect union jobs, and respond to aging infrastructure and financial weakness in the utility sector. After recesses and discussion of the Public Utilities Commission’s role, the chair changed the recommendation from pass unamended to pass with amendments requiring the PUC to conduct a study, provide an interim report before the next session, and a final report the following session. That amended recommendation was adopted, and the meeting then adjourned with no further business.
