The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice. Except it doesn’t bend on its own—it bends because we pull it in the direction of justice. What keeps me hopeful during times like these is being surrounded by people who are doing just that.

We teamed with @gm_carter on SB206 that would increase the minimum wage in Louisiana. Urban League of Louisiana continues to be grateful to Sen. Carter for authoring this bill and we will continue to fight for a fair and equitable minimum wage for residents in Louisiana.

6:50 PM- Conditions are quickly getting worse in the NOLA Metro as the strongest winds and heaviest rain approach. We are getting consistent gusts of 55-65MPH across the metro and higher to the southwest. Flooding also likely. Shelter in place and stay away from windows!

In early 2024, @AnitaRajNewcomb (@NCITU) connected with State Sen. @gm_carter to help incarcerated youths in Louisiana. Their bill, now law, provides vocational training for inmates under 21 upon release.

Even though New Orleanians are too often victims of lawlessness, Sen. @gm_carter's sympathies here lie entirely with organized lawbreakers shutting down roads. Shows no concern about drivers being illegally blocked and the problems that result. He voted against the bill. #lalege

Senate amends HB 205 to add 7 MORE crimes to the state's RICO statute, including obstructing a highway. That means protesters who block highways could be charged under laws normally used for organized criminals. Bill passes Senate. #lalege #lagov legis.la.gov/legis/ViewDocu…

Senate Labor votes 5-2 against Democratic Sen. Gary Carter's bill to raise the minimum wage in Louisiana. Vote on SB173 fell along party lines with Republicans opposed to the bill and Democrats in support. #lalege

The state minimum wage in LA mirrors the federal rate of $7.25 per hour. This prohibits so many Louisianans, from affording adequate housing, fresh foods, and basic necessities. Legislation has the power to positively change the lives of our communities. @gm_carter @DeeBoydBroker

“What about a member of the Associated Press or something like that? That would prohibit them asking for public records of the state?
@JayJaymorris3 “Yes.”

In a strong showing of bipartisanship, the Senate advanced legislation to require vocational training assessments for children committed to the Department of Public Safety and Corrections. #louisiana #lalege #2024session

The death penalty is cruel and unusual punishment; but sadly, today Louisiana expanded its use.

@HuntleeVillage @EdnaKarrHS @freddiekingiii @StantonMcNeely @DeeBoydBroker I heard the band practicing this evening. Must be carnival time!

Unless you live in Algiers, you will never experience the thrill of listening to the @EdnaKarrHS band practicing or the tolling of the bells of St. Andrew’s
Am I right?
