Jeff Landry
Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry issued the following statement praising the Louisiana Senate for passing SB 145 – legislation that would quickly identify individuals with substance use disorders who become involved in the criminal justice system and hopefully provide early intervention and treatment:
“In an overwhelming, bipartisan manner – the Louisiana Senate voted to repair the damage caused by the opioid epidemic and improve the safety of all our State s citizens. By creating a Drug and Specialty Court fund in the state treasury – Louisiana would be able to accept deposit of any compensation recovered from opioid manufacturers, marketers, and sellers who stoked the fire of the epidemic then disbursing those monies to state and local entities providing and enabling treatment courts across our State.

BATON ROUGE, La. (WAFB) - Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry has a reputation for being particularly tough on individuals accused of possessing or distributing child pornography.
In the past 12 months, his office has sent out 28 news releases regarding alleged crimes against children, nearly always accompanied by photographs of the suspects.
However, Landry’s office did not send out a news release about the January 2021 arrest of Gregory V. Campo, 22, of Baton Rouge.
The states argue that the sweeping executive action covers “topics as diverse as vending machines, dishwashers, dehumidifiers, microwave ovens, residential water heaters, residential refrigerators and freezers, fluorescent lamps, residential clothes dryers, room air conditioners, residential furnaces, residential air conditioners, and battery chargers, just to name a few.”

Wyoming, Texas, West Virginia, Mississippi, South Dakota, Alabama, Florida, Georgia and Kentucky were the other states bringing the legal challenge, which was filed as Mr. Biden hosted a two-day virtual climate change conference with 40 other world leaders.
