Continuing our sine die series summarizing legislative sessions around the country, Sheila McCant of the Louisiana House staff has done our job for us in "2007 Regular Session Wrapup". According to Sheila's post, the second session of Louisiana's biennium is largely confined to fiscal issues, "and the money issue came in many forms - a record surplus, breaking the spending cap, tax breaks, incentives, and pay raises for teachers, support workers, college faculty, judges, state employees, and others."
Rep. Tim Burns also posted a commentary on the session right before Sheila's summary in the House blog, In the Loop. And the Times-Picayune has another summary, "Legislative term ends on recovery high note."
