Welcome to the first edition of our campaign newsletter. Election day is just over 150 days away and this newsletter will be sent to you monthly to keep you informed of our campaign’s plans and progress. We’ve enjoyed a great deal of success in Louisiana Tourism. For five consecutive years we broke visitor attendance records; we transformed our state parks and museums from nearly being shuttered to reaching new heights in visitation and revenue. In one year alone, over 53 million people visited Louisiana leaving behind $1.9 billion in taxes that you and I didn’t have to pay. That's over $1,100 in savings per Louisiana family. We’re cleaning Louisiana up through Keep Louisiana Beautiful. This year, over 500 organizations throughout our state, schools and universities collected over 500 tons of trash as we brighten our state’s future. We are creating more private/public partnerships to improve quality of life for our elderly, educate our children and build more attractions. Success in tourism is around every corner, and we’re just getting started. I am honored to serve as your Lt. Governor. With your support, we’ll continue the progress.

MORE THAN A FAIR

We can’t discount the importance of our neighborhood school fairs. Not only do they support their school and parish, but they also introduce many of their guests to new businesses across the area. Cher and I especially enjoyed meeting so many terrific Louisianans at the St. Peter fair in Covington. The kids are clever and creative, and they make memories that’ll last a lifetime while supporting their schools. St. Peter's School students helped raise funds to build a special needs playground at Fontainebleau State Park.New Paragraph
