I am proud of each and every day I spend representing the people of south Louisiana in the United States House of Representatives. The issues we face as a nation and as a district are important and complex. I believe that common sense and hard work will prevail as we tackle both local and national issues of interest. Please feel free to use the resources below to research the current and past actions of Congress and don't hesitate to call or email our offices with any further questions.
District Projects
Projects important to the people of the Third Congressional
District get well-deserved federal support through the annual federal
appropriations bills. Member appropriations -- sometimes referred to as
"earmarks" -- al
low Louisianans to bypass agency bureaucrats in Washington and go directly
to their elected representatives to secure federal funding for
important projects in their communities.
Legislation
One of my goals for this website is to provide constituents an
opportunity to learn more about the legislative process and my work in
Congress. Below you may view links to my voting record, my activity in
Congress and various links to other federal legislative information and
resources.
