We're continuing to highlight the ways Governor John Bel Edwards has moved Louisiana forward in yet another difficult year despite opposition from partisan extremists and special interests. We at A Stronger Louisiana believe Gov. Edwards has put Louisiana back on the right track. If you agree, please consider making a contribution to support our efforts to keep Louisiana headed in the right direction. 

One of Gov. Edwards' most impactful accomplishments this year was working to pass a legislative agenda that will make a positive impact on generations of Louisianans for many years to come. Here are some of Gov. Edwards' 2021 legislative wins: 

• HB 409 by Rep. Freeman - Requires certain reporting requirements for sexual assault and sexual harassment by mandatory reporters in higher education.
