LBP Didja Know? 2-27-23: Executive Budget Breakdown

In the latest edition of the Didja Know? Podcast, LBP executive director Jan Moller and the organization’s newest policy analyst, Paul Braun, break down Gov. John Bel Edwards’ 2023-24 executive budget and the looming fiscal cliff the state faces in 2025.

The governor's plan will mainly benefit corporations and the wealthy, while working and middle-class families will pay more for services and products we use every day such as diapers, garbage collection, haircuts and home repairs. Louisiana’s tax system certainly needs to be improved, but this is the wrong way to do it.
Gov. Jeff Landry has called the Legislature into a special session to overhaul Louisiana’s tax structure.
