Thank you for your interest in getting involved with the LA1 Coalition. Before the start of session, Representative Magee and Senator Ward coauthored HB 578, to provide additional infrastructure funding to new and backlogged projects throughout the state of Louisiana. In particular, the LA1 Improvement Project would receive critical state funding that would help to finance the completion of the project. We invite you to join our mailing list to stay updated – and to receive important updates on the progress of this piece of legislation.
