    “Although Congress has indisputably given OSHA the power to regulate occupational dangers, it has not given that agency the power to regulate public health more broadly.” Today’s stay is a historic victory against government overreach.

    After years of amendments turning Louisiana’s constitution into an unwieldy super-statute, HB 800 sets Louisiana on the path to a historic constitutional convention. Aiming for a streamlined, effective constitution, it's time to cut the clutter. Read more on our latest blog.

    Recognizing that the OSHA vaccine mandate raises "grave statutory and constitutional issues" the Fifth Circuit granted our request for an emergency stay. #lalege #lagov

    Our case with Brandon continues to find success in the Fifth Circuit. The court issued a permanent injunction this evening, forcing the federal government to continue stoppage of enforcement of this rule. #lalege #lagov
    BREAKING NEWS: The OSHA vaccine mandate impacting millions of Americans remains suspended! The Fifth Circuit has ordered the federal government to stand down and take no further action to implement or enforce the Mandate until further court order.

    Reclassifying independent contractors as employees is threatening the livelihoods & freedom of hardworking Americans-especially TRUCKERS. We have filed a lawsuit w/ @LJCenter on behalf of Frisard’s Transportation to stop the Biden Administration's attack. bit.ly/pr2824

    Bottom line: workers and businesses across the United States will be harmed if the government is allowed to implement OSHA’s vaccine mandate. Our client, Brandon Trosclair, is at the Supreme Court fighting for businesses like his. #IAmBrandon

    It’s never been more clear how hard the deeply-entrenched status quo will fight against transformational reforms. It’s disappointing that confusion and obfuscation won the day over a hopeful future for Louisiana. We owe it to our children, grandchildren, friends, and neighbors

    The case on OSHA's vaccine mandate is clear: it is an illegal overreach by the federal government and would be an economic disaster for American workers and businesses. #BrandonvBiden

    Replying to @PelicanInst
    We applaud the Fifth Circuit judges for their swift action to put a halt to the illegal and unconstitutional employer vaccine mandate. Brandon Trosclair and so many others will be vindicated in their legal challenges as the legal process continues. #lalege #lagov
