Governor Jindal press release:
When I took office, I said we would work together to create a New Louisiana - a place where our children can get a great education, pursue rewarding careers and raise their kids right here at home. Instead of Louisiana losing its young people to Texas and Georgia each year, we would become the state where not only our own businesses expand and create jobs, but others come here seeking opportunities as well. Over the last two years we have made tremendous progress on that critical top mission of fostering greater economic growth to create jobs.
