This late-March news report covers the new investigation into two Orleans Parish Juvenile Court judges and how their failures led to multiple deaths. Thankfully, the LA Supreme Court finally ordered a legitimate investigation. Not a peep from city leaders. #lalege #lagov #nolasky
"Same old problem... In January, we had a shooting. Someone was shot 7 times... [Shooter was] a juvenile whose ankle monitor died 3 days before..." Jill Dennis says Freddie King’s Criminal Justice Committee has been ignoring contact attempts. @nolacitycouncil.bsky.social #lalege #lagov #nolasky
"Nashville is over 700,000 people... New Orleans is 362,000 people. Nashville has *one* juvenile court judge elected. She appoints commissioners on her behalf... That's *one* point of contact to the public. That's *one* point of accountability to the public." #lalege #lagov #nolasky
"To put this all in perspective for you... New Orleans has, for instance, 12 appellate court judges on the Fourth Circuit. The entire state of Georgia — the entire state — has 15." This is ridiculous. No more "studies." Rightsize the courts now. #lalege #lagov #nolasky
If studies that led to the 2013 legislation said *only one* juvenile court judge was needed all those years ago when the population was greater, why are we still holding on to four judges now? We don't need another study, we need to rightsize our courts. #lalege #lagov #nolasky

Louisiana's overall tax burden ranks 22nd nationally.
BUT the state's property and individual income tax burdens are well below the 50-state median (45 & 37 respectively). Louisiana's total sales and excise tax burden is the fifth highest in the nation. wallethub.com/edu/states-w... #lalege #lagov
